Trump administration to bar Chinese passenger airlines from flights to US
The US government said on Wednesday that it would bar Chinese airlines from flying passengers to US destinations, starting on June 16, in retaliation for Beijing’s refusal to let American carriers resume service to China.
Last month, the US Department of Transportation (DOT) requested permission from the Civil Aviation Authority of China (CAAC) for US carriers to resume flights to the country. But the CAAC merely extended an order that limited all domestic and foreign carriers to international flight schedules in place as of March 12.
In doing so, CAAC was rejecting DOT’s request. US carriers had voluntarily halted passenger service to China in February, as part of efforts to block the spread of Covid-19, after US President Donald Trump ordered immigration authorities to bar most non-US citizens travelling from China from entry into the US....
I had an uncle was fishing in a pond. Dividing the pond was a old wire fence, As my uncle moved his boat to the fence to paddle over it he saw a bunch of water moccasins in a cluster atop the fence, it scared him so badly he fell out the boat, the boat hit the fence and my uncle stop fishing for trouble that day.
