The United States on Saturday scolded China for attempting to impose „political correctness“ on American carriers by asking them to classify Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau as Chinese territories.
A sternly worded White House statement excoriated Beijing for the demands, which it termed „Orwellian nonsense.“
„President Donald J. Trump ran against political correctness in the United States,“ it said. „He will stand up for Americans resisting efforts by the Chinese Communist Party to impose Chinese political correctness on American companies and citizens.“
The statement added that the Chinese Civil Aviation Administration sent a notice to 36 foreign air carriers, including a number of American carriers, on April 25, asking them to comply with Beijing’s standards.
