That's because the US enacted a law called the Wolf Amendment in 2011, which prevents NASA from using government funds to cooperate directly with China
Laws are stupid apparently

Part of the reason for not cooperating was China dropping boosters on populated areas I think.
Edit: here's a video of a hypergolic first stage crashing on/near a village a week ago. https://edition.cnn.com/2024/06/24/china/china-rocket-debris-falls-over-village-intl-hnk/index.html
Has nothing to do with that. They are concerned about China getting their hands on U.S. rocket technology that they could use for defense purposes.
I don't know why people are giving this sample the time of day, when odds are 1:1 that it's bullshit - https://youtu.be/_Nqja6IvTEw?list=PLpRwVnZjybJ1QLMPZSQwulyTZ3wZGQlDG
Prolly cuz they're fake like half the shit out of China
Right? People keep praising China as this technological super power when they're just a bunch of scam artists
