Taiwan's foreign minister criticized China's suspension on trips by individual Chinese citizens to the island, saying Beijing appeared to be afraid of allowing its people to experience "a country where freedom, openness (and) tolerance are the order of the day." China announced the ban Wednesday, July 31, 2019 in an apparent move ahead of Taiwan's elections in January to intensify its pressure on Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen to endorse Beijing's position that Taiwan is Chinese territory.
