China Explains Decision to Block U.S. Ships
China denied permission for a United States aircraft carrier battle group and other American warships to visit Hong Kong last week because of the Bush administration’s proposal to sell upgrades to Patriot antimissile batteries to Taiwan. Mr. Liu said that Mr. Bush’s meeting with the Dalai Lama in Washington in October had also damaged ties between the two countries. Days before the Kitty Hawk was turned away, China refused permission for two United States Navy minesweepers to shelter in Hong Kong’s harbor during a storm and to take on supplies. The ships were later refueled at sea, the Navy said.
Opinion
I think that this is very bad for the United States because we need to trade with them and this might cause a war. I honestly do not understand why China would want to do that. The United States would really suffer alot of they are not allowed to visit China especially since we buy alot from them. I think that Bush needs to fix this because if not this affect everybody.
