CHINA BLOCKS SOME IMPORTS FROM TAIWAN
China blocked imports of citrus, fish and other foods from Taiwan in retaliation for a visit by U. S.

The two sides have no official relations but multibilliondollar business ties, especially in the flow of Taiwanese- made processor chips needed by Chinese factories.
