Beijing, Jun 6: Beijing Tuesday issued a US travel warning saying Chinese tourists should "fully assess the risks," citing crime amid a bruising trade war and other tensions, state media said.  

Separately, the foreign ministry issued a statement accusing US law enforcement of harassing Chinese citizens in the United States. 

China warned students and academics on Monday about risks involved in studying in the United States, pointing to limits on the duration of visas and visa refusals, amid a bitter trade war and other tension between the two countries.  

Relations between China and the United States have nosedived because of their trade conflict, US sanctions on Chinese tech firm Huawei Technologies Co Ltd and tension over the disputed South China Sea and US support for Chinese-claimed Taiwan.
