Trump orders his administration to begin eliminating Hong Kong privileges and block the entry of Chinese graduate students with potential security risks to US
"I am directing my administration to begin the process of eliminating policy that gives Hong Kong different and special treatment," Trump said.
In an announcement at the White House that Trump had teased for a day, the US president attacked China over its treatment of the former British colony, saying it was "diminishing the city's long-standing and proud status." "I am directing my administration to begin the process of eliminating policy that gives Hong Kong different and special treatment," Trump said.
"For years, the government of China has conducted elicit espionage to steal our industrial secrets, of which there are many," Trump said. Beijing earlier retaliated by expelling US journalists after the United States took its own measure to curb Chinese staff in the country from its state-run media.
