Chinese authorities recently blocked Trump confident Michael Pillsbury from visiting Beijing after the U.S. tightened scrutiny on Chinese experts visiting America.
Chinese authorities recently declined to issue a visa for Donald Trump’s confidant Michael Pillsbury after the U.S. president’s administration strengthened scrutiny on visiting Chinese experts, according to Axios on Wednesday.
Pillsbury told Axios he contacted a well-connected Chinese source to ask if they knew why the visa was held and was referred to a recent New York Times article titled “F.B.I Bars Some China Scholars From Visiting U.S. Over Spying Fears.
Commenting on the allegations, Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said he “wouldn’t say [the visas] have been declined” but admitted that China has been delaying visa processing for his officials. "You also see it in just how much it costs to get a visa to go to a country," he said. "For example, the price of a visa for New Zealanders to go to China is the same price as it is for a Chinese person to come to New Zealand."
