China Using Arbitrary 'Exit Bans' To Stops Dozens Of US Citizens From Leaving: ReportKEY POINTS- Up to 200 Americans may be arbitrarily detained in China, says a report- The U.S. has warned of China using exit bans 'coercively' after 'luring individuals back from abroad'- There is no reliable mechanism or legal process to find out how long the exit ban may lastAmid the bitter wrangling between Washington and Beijing over geopolitics and trade, at least 200 Americans may be arbitrarily detained in China and almost 30 others subject to its unlawful exit bans, according to a report.Meanwhile, the report quoted John Kamm, chair of the San Francisco-based Dui Hua Foundation, as saying that as many as 30 U.S. citizens are stuck in China, unable to leave the country due to the exit ban.With no formal notification and limit to the duration of the ban, foreign citizens who remain stuck in China have no clear mechanism to resolve or dispute the arbitrary ban on their exit.Given the fear among Chinese American citizens that diplomatic pressure may further complicate their cases, authorities in the U.S. are not fully aware of how many Americans may actually be stuck in China or the target of such exit bans, the WSJ reported.Western governments have been calling out Beijing for its now well-known adoption of a coercive "international extralegal repatriation" program to force its dissident nationals abroad or people of Chinese origins to return to China."
