Beijing has delayed some high-level military visits to the US in retaliation for Washington's proposed arms deal with Taiwan, Pentagon officials said on Tuesday.
The officials, whose names were not cited, told Reuters that China has postponed planned visits to the US by its chief of the General Staff of People's Liberation Army (PLA) Chen Bingde, as well as by one of its top regional commanders.
A planned visit to China by the commander of the US Pacific Command has also been postponed, they said.
"There are other, as yet unscheduled, events the PRC (People's Republic of China) is not considering for the time being," a Pentagon official was quoted as saying.
In its toughest response in three decades to a US arms sale to Taiwan, Beijing announced earlier this month that it would curtail military exchanges with Washington, and sanction US companies involved in the deal, and warned of the severe harm the sale would cause bilateral ties.
The Pentagon has attached great importance to military exchanges with China as it is one of the few ways for it to get really close to China's PLA which they deem mysterious.
The officials, however, said Beijing has been quite restrained. So far no visits from China are formally cancelled, while China has not imposed sanctions on any US firms involved in the arms deal as it threatened.
Beijing has also allowed a US aircraft carrier to berth in Hong Kong, a rare move during times of tension. The USS Kitty Hawk was denied entry in 2007.
When asked what actions China has taken to curb military-to-military contacts, Pentagon spokesman Bryan Whitman said: "We haven't noticed anything significant."
On the other side, the Pentagon is also seeking to play down the issue. US Defense Secretary Robert Gates said he still plans to visit China later this year.
