Taiwan to attend China APEC summit on 'equal basis,' says President Lai

Taiwan will participate in the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) leaders' summit in China on the principle of equal interaction, President Lai Ching-te announced. China, which views Taiwan as its territory, refuses to engage with Mr. Lai, labelling him a 'separatist'. Taiwan typically sends former officials or business leaders as its APEC envoy.
