US to revise State Dept's travel advisory for Hong Kong, says Trump

The United States will revise the State Department's travel advisory for Hong Kong to reflect "increased danger of punishment by the Chinese state security apparatus", President Donald Trump said on Friday (local time).

"We will be revising the State Department's travel advisory for Hong Kong to reflect the increased danger of surveillance and punishment by the Chinese state security apparatus," Trump said while addressing a press conference at Rose Garden of White House.

This comes a day after China's parliament passed the proposal to impose a new national security law in Hong Kong.
