WASHINGTON: China has refused another planned port call by a US warship amid soaring tensions between the Pacific powers on trade, a US official said on Wednesday .
It is the latest cancellation by China, which earlier this month denied requests for two US Navy ships to dock in Hong Kong, which has been rocked by protests seeking to preserve the city's autonomy. Schriver said that the United States hoped the latest port call could be rescheduled, saying the two militaries should try to enhance coordination and safety measures."Going forward, we want a US-China mil-to-mil relationship that plays a stabilizing role in the overall relationship," he said at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a Washington think tank.
