The leader of Taiwan's main opposition party Kuomintang (KMT), Cheng Li-wun, on Monday heads to the United States for a two-week visit.
The trip comes two months after her visit to China, where she met with President Xi Jinping and spoke of there being a need for work to "promote reconciliation across the Strait and create regional prosperity and peace."
China views Taiwan, which is governed independently, as a breakaway province and has not ruled out the use of force in taking it back.
