TOKYO -- Details of the U.S.-China divide emerged Friday, as a statement released by the summit chair of the Asia-Pacific economies showed evidence of a fight between the world's two largest economies over how it should be worded.
The 21-member Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation, which held a summit of leaders on Sunday in Papua New Guinea, failed to issue a joint communique for the first time in its near three-decade history after Washington and Beijing were unable to agree on key parts of the draft.
