U.S. gives China 72 hours to shut Houston consulate, Trump says other closures 'always possible'

The United States gave China 72 hours to close its consulate in Houston amid accusations of spying, marking a dramatic deterioration in relations between the world’s two biggest economies.

The U.S. State Department said on Wednesday the Chinese mission in Houston was being closed “to protect American intellectual property and Americans’ private information.”



President Donald Trump said in answer to a question at a news briefing it was “always possible” other Chinese missions could be closed too.
