[Explanation] Recently, the US government imposed so-called "sanctions" on a number of officials from the Central People’s Government and the SAR government. On August 12, Lu Wenduan, the vice chairman of the All-China Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese and the chairman of the Hong Kong Association for the Promotion of Peaceful Reunification of China, said in an interview with reporters. , Strongly condemns the so-called "sanctions" of the United States, which is completely hegemonism.

  [Explanation] Lu Wenduan pointed out that the United States has used rude means to interfere in the internal affairs of China and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of China. The behavior is despicable, and the international community also sees the barbarism of the United States. The so-called "sanctions" of the United States are intended to mess up Hong Kong and support "anti-China chaos in Hong Kong" elements.

  The Central Government’s establishment of a national security law for Hong Kong conforms to international practice, the Constitution and the Basic Law. Didn’t the United States enact many national security laws on 9/11 (after the incident)? Has the Ministry of National Security been established? It just shows that the United States is a double standard. The main purpose of the country's legislation for Hong Kong is to ensure national security and Hong Kong's prosperity and stability. (US sanctions) have grossly interfered with China's internal affairs and Hong Kong affairs, and violated international norms. With the support of countries, these sanctions can be solved one by one. The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government is now full of confidence, and Hong Kong citizens are also opposed to the US sanctions.

  [Commentary] Recently, the National Security Office of the Hong Kong police arrested Hong Kong rioters Li Zhiying and other 7 people on suspicion of colluding with foreign forces and violating the Hong Kong National Security Law. Lu Wenduan said that Li Zhiying has committed numerous crimes and has poisoned Hong Kong youths through the media for a long time, and the arrest has been very encouraging.

  Li Zhiying's arrest can be said to be very happy! What Li Zhiying did was to collude with foreign forces, and it has been damaging Hong Kong for many years. From the (illegal) "Occupy Central" and the legislative turmoil to the present, the public's eyes are very sharp. Li Zhiying supports the black storm and supports "Hong Kong independence." He supports the color revolution. He is the biggest benefactor behind these reactionary forces. Hong Kong citizens see it very clearly. Therefore (based on) the National Security Law to arrest Li Zhiying in accordance with the law is really a relief.

  [Explanation] Lu Wenduan also said that after the implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law, the police have been given more law enforcement powers, and the society has quickly restored calm. The SAR government officials have become more confident in their speeches, and he is full of confidence in the future of Hong Kong.
