An upstate New York orchestra reversed course on Tuesday and cancelled plans to tour China this winter after China refused to allow the group's three South Korean musicians to perform.
The Eastman Philharmonia from the University of Rochester's Eastman School of Music initially said it would go anyway.
Late Tuesday, however, Eastman Dean Jamal Rossi issued a statement saying the tour would be postponed until everyone could go.
除了Nike、Apple、Gap和NBA之外，陷入中美之間緊張關係的美國實體又添一例：伊士曼愛樂樂團。
該樂團本週取消了原定的中國之行，此前樂團的三名韓國成員沒能拿到簽證，這顯然是對韓國在2016年同意部署薩德防禦系統的報復。
近年來，由薩德引發的緊張關係，許多韓國藝人前往中國演出時遇到困難，中國對該系統極其憤怒，認為是對其安全的威脅。
