China Bars US Airlines from Country

      Beijing made an announcement yesterday that prohibits United Airlines and Delta Airlines from landing in China.  This was in response to the US airlines making 300+ flights a week to China.  Now, the White House announces that flights by Chinese carriers will be restricted until further notice.  This underscores the ongoing friction between the two nations.  Much of this friction began months ago and continues as both countries struggle to cope with the spread of coronavirus/COVID-19.   Deaths in the US have surpassed 107,000 and over 1.5 million cases of the virus.   Some flights have been permitted to land in China, but this was before the lockout of United and Delta.
