China’s Vice Finance Minister Liao Min Attends 25th CAREC Ministerial Meeting in Ulaanbaatar

The notable signal here is the framing: AI is now being folded into a multilateral development mechanism's agenda alongside connectivity, which suggests regional infrastructure finance is starting to treat digital capacity as core rather than adjacent. For RWA and tokenization watchers, the relevant thread is whether CAREC's connectivity agenda eventually extends to cross-border digital infrastructure standards, since those tend to precede any serious discussion of asset-level interoperability. The open question is whether this remains a thematic talking point or translates into concrete working groups — the readout gives no indication either way.
