Amid worsening China-US relations, the US Embassy in Beijing held an auction of the embassy’s belongings on Tuesday at a warehouse in Beijing’s Shunyi district and attracted hundreds of locals. Some attendees joked that they came to check whether the embassy is preparing to close following the closure of consulates in both countries, while others were merely hunting for bargains.
