US issues China travel warning
The US State Department is urging American to reconsider travel to China.
It cites ‘arbitrary law enforcement’ and the ‘risk of wrongful detentions.’
“China arbitrarily enforces local laws, including issuing exit bans on US citizens without fair and transparent process,” the advisory said.
