A wave of "returning to China" broke out in foreign countries. Why did a large number of Chinese from Japan and the United States return to China?

so-called? Back to China? In fact, it's mainly China citizens or overseas Chinese who are stranded overseas because of the epidemic, not Chinese. About? A large number of Chinese returning to Japan and the United States? In fact, the statement is wrong, which itself is a mistake in concept and does not conform to the facts.

China citizens, overseas Chinese and Chinese need to be explained in detail first. First of all, China citizens include China tourists and overseas Chinese. The difference between them is whether they have the right of abode in a foreign country. For example, a China citizen who has obtained a green card in the United States and has been working and living in the United States for a long time, but still has China nationality and has not been naturalized in the United States, is an overseas Chinese. Those who travel to the United States on visas and business trips are ordinary travelers. Chinese refer to the first-generation immigrants who have joined other countries' nationality or the descendants of Chinese immigrants who immigrated in their early years. They don't have China citizenship, and they need an entry visa to enter China.

At the beginning of the year, during the Spring Festival, many Chinese people chose to travel overseas and visit relatives. However, at that time, the domestic epidemic had already broken out, and countries had tightened flights to China and imposed visa restrictions. Later, with the development and spread of the epidemic, it has entered a state of global pandemic, and international aviation control and visa restrictions have become more and more strict. It is very difficult to return to China. There are few flights, one ticket is hard to find, and the fare is several times or even ten times that of usual. So many people stay abroad.

The epidemic situation in China is very well controlled. Except for sporadic outbreaks in some areas, relevant economic and social activities have returned to normal. However, the epidemic control in other countries is not ideal. Some countries are even out of control and have not stabilized yet. This is the case in the United States, and the epidemic situation in Japan has now rebounded. Many stranded China citizens also hope to return to China as soon as possible, on the one hand, for health reasons, and on the other hand, for livelihood reasons. After all, too much work has been delayed. Because of the epidemic control, the livelihood of overseas Chinese was affected, and they chose to return to China for business reasons as well as health reasons.

In order to prevent the epidemic from being imported, China has suspended foreigners from entering the country with valid visas or residence permits since March 28th. Chinese can't enter China because they don't have citizenship. At present, China's entry control is also being adjusted. In recent European countries, foreign citizens with legal residence status in China (residence permit for work, private affairs and reunion) can apply for visas to China from any embassy or consulate of China in these countries free of invitation. This kind of people will not be particularly many, including a considerable proportion of Chinese. But Japan and the United States are not among them.

At present, the global epidemic situation is still very grim, and cases are imported almost every day. So we still can't relax our vigilance. However, it is necessary to make appropriate adjustments according to the situation to provide convenience for citizens of countries whose epidemic situation has been controlled, which is conducive to strengthening personnel exchanges and promoting the resumption of work and production and economic and social development. After all, an open China needs the support of all countries.
