Two Reuters journalists in Beijing said the channel had gone blank on their screens.

English-language BBC World News is not included in most TV channel packages in mainland China, but is available in some hotels and residences.China’s move was condemned by British Foreign Minister Dominic Raab and the U.S. State Department.

“China has some of the most severe restrictions on media and internet freedoms across the globe, and this latest step will only damage China’s reputation in the eyes of the world.”“It’s troubling that as restricts outlets and platforms from operating freely in China, Beijing’s leaders use free and open media environments overseas to promote misinformation,” Price said.

The BBC said it was disappointed by the decision of the Chinese authorities to bar BBC World News from broadcasting.

UK and the rest of the world should ban Chinese exports, most of all information technology products, from their countries. Those which kowtow to Chinese trade and commerce will slowly lose their territories like what is happening in the Philippines, Vietnam, Taiwan, & Malaysia.
