The US is recommending Americans reconsider travelling to China because of arbitrary law enforcement, exit bans and the risk of wrongful detentions. No specific cases were cited, but the advisory comes after a 78-year-old US citizen was sentenced to life in prison on spying charges in May. It also follows the passage last week of a sweeping Foreign Relations Law that threatens countermeasures against those seen as harming China interests.
