The United States warned its citizens Thursday they could face arbitrary action by authorities when they visit China, following the detention of two Canadians.
Updating its travel advisory, the State Department maintained its previous guidance that Americans should « exercise increased caution » in China and stopped short of discouraging visits.
While the language was largely the same as earlier, the State Department warned of « arbitrary enforcement of local laws, » sudden prohibitions on exiting the country and harassment of US citizens of Chinese heritage.
