PoliticsFrom ‘persuasion’ to exit bans: How China is redefining freedom of movement
China will implement new entry-exit rules on September 15, allowing border officials to dissuade citizens from traveling to high-risk countries and regions when necessary. People deemed to have endangered national security and interests abroad could be barred from leaving again after returning. Researchers, immigration agencies and some foreigners will also be affected. Scholars say population movement and technology are being brought further under a national-security framework, while state media rejects claims of “closing the country.”
