China urges US to end flight suspensions

Washington, Jan 22 (UNI/Sputnik) The US retaliatory decision to suspend dozens of flights to China is unreasonable and the disruptions must end, a spokesperson from Beijing's Embassy in Washington told Sputnik.
Earlier in the day, the Biden administration announced that it suspended 44 US to China flights in order to contain the spread of the novel coronavirus. The suspended flights to China begin on January 30 and include flights from the carriers Xiamen Airlines, China Southern Airlines Company and Air China.
"It is very unreasonable for the US to suspend Chinese airlines' flights on this ground," embassy spokesperson Liu Pengyu said. "We urge the US side to stop disrupting and restricting the normal passenger flights operated by Chinese airlines."
