WASHINGTON—The Chinese government denied a U.S. Navy ship permission for a port visit to Hong Kong next month, U.S. military officials said Monday, a decision issued as Beijing also canceled a high-level naval meeting in the U.S.
The rebuffs come as tensions burgeon between the two countries over a range of military and economic differences.
