APEC Summit Sparks Protests and Traffic Chaos in San Francisco
Thousands of protesters are expected to march through downtown San Francisco on Sunday to oppose the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit. Organized by the No to APEC Coalition, the peaceful march aims to prioritize human needs over corporate greed. The rally will feature speakers from various organizations, including the United Auto Workers and the Palestinian Youth Movement. Despite the heavy security presence, activists plan to voice their opposition to APEC and the US-led Indo-Pacific Economic Framework. The APEC summit, hosted by the US for the first time in over a decade, will be attended by President Joe Biden and other world leaders. Expect traffic delays and street closures in the city.
