\u201cThe Chinese government always deals with issues related to foreign correspondents in China based on law and regulation,\u201d the Foreign Ministry said in a written response to questions. \u201cHis application is still under consideration,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n

Mr. Buckley, an Australian national, has declined to comment on the matter. A spokesman for the Australian embassy in Beijing has also declined to comment.<\/p>\n

The Foreign Ministry said in its statement that it was incorrect to say Mr. Buckley had been deported or that approval of his visa being delayed.<\/p>\n

In a statement this week, the Times\u2019 executive editor, Jill Abramson, said she hoped \u201cthe Chinese authorities will issue him a new visa as soon as possible.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
