Xu Jiatun
It is for United States' authorities to decide who can
visit the United States.
(If asked whether Xu transitted Hong Kong)
- Not HMG's practice to comment on who transits Hong
Kong.
China's Most Favoured Nation Status
Concerned that a decision by United States not to renew
China's MFN status would have serious impact on Hong
Kong's economy because of large-scale reexport of
Chinese-made goods to the US through Hong Kong.
Both we and Hong Kong Government have urged US
Administration to take account of Hong Kong dimension
when taking their decision.
