China's foreign ministry has issued a safety alert for citizens traveling to the US, warning them of security risks and advising against entering the country through Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Recently, around 20 Chinese scholars were subjected to 'unreasonable questioning' by US Customs and Border Protection officers at the airport and were denied entry despite holding valid US visas. The ministry cited 'repeated incidents of malicious questioning and harassment targeting Chinese scholars' at the airport. Chinese nationals are advised to strengthen their safety awareness and make necessary preparations when traveling to the US. If questioned by US law enforcement, they should respond calmly and rationally. The alert comes amid heightened tensions between China and the US, following the death of a Chinese researcher in Michigan, which China has urged the US to investigate.
