KMT Chair Zheng Li-wen says the DPP is taking rumors of a planned meeting
between her and Chinese President Xi Jinping to new levels of absurdity.

After the DPP said that opposition lawmakers have refused to consider the
Cabinet's special defense bill next week because they don't want to imperil a
meeting between Zheng and Xi, Zheng said this is only the latest DPP fantasy
of a such a meeting.

She said that if the DPP would simply accept the so-called 1992 consensus and
forsake its QUOTE "useless" pro-independence platform, there's every chance
that there would be a meeting between President Lai Ching-te and Xi Jinping
before she ever meets the Chinese Communist Party chairman.

The 1992 consensus refers to the notion that KMT and CCP leaders in 1992
agreed to continue discussions on the basis that each side could have its own
interpretation of what "China" is. This consensus was never really achieved
in 1992. Moreover, the DPP's position is that it's a trap that forces
acceptance of Beijing's "one-China" principle, thus undermining Taiwan's
sovereignty.
