HONG KONG, March 18 (Reuters) - Hong Kong leader John Lee said on Tuesday his government is opposed to "coercion and bullying tactics" by foreign governments when asked about conglomerate CK Hutchison's 0001.HK port deal with U.S. firm BlackRock BLK.N.
CK Hutchison said this month it agreed to sell most of its global $22.8 billion ports business, including assets held along the strategically important Panama Canal, to a group led by BlackRock in a deal that has become politicised.
