Clarification by the State Department Spokesperson
“No Decisions About Invites Have Been Made”

In an open letter to Secretary Blinken this week, it was quoted that the Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman has confirmed plans to "invite Hong Kong Chief Executive John Lee to attend APEC.” A spokesperson for the State Department clarified today that an incorrect statement was issued earlier to Congress, and “no decisions about invites have been made.” They reiterated that the U.S. values the participation of the 21 member economies and emphasized that participants must comply with U.S. laws, including sanction-related provisions.
Hong Kongers in the U.S. will continue to demand that the authorities directly and clearly withdraw the invitation to John Lee and bar his entry into the U.S..
