China News Service, Hong Kong, July 17th. A number of political and business organizations in Hong Kong issued a statement on the 17th, strongly condemning the United States' unreasonable and arbitrary interference in Hong Kong affairs, unprovoked discrediting of Hong Kong's business environment and so-called "sanctions" against officials of the Liaison Office in Hong Kong.

The fighting spirit of Ling behavior."
The DAB stated that after the implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law, Hong Kong society quickly calmed down from riots, economic activities gradually recovered from the trough of social turmoil and the epidemic, and citizens' consumption and foreign investment also increased, which fully illustrates the US government The contents of the so-called warnings issued to Hong Kong and American companies are totally inconsistent with the personal experiences and demonstrations of international investors and local citizens, and will eventually reap the consequences.
The Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions stated that after the return of Hong Kong, the central government and the SAR government governed in strict accordance with the Constitution and the Hong Kong Basic Law, fully implemented the "One Country, Two Systems" policy, and committed to maintaining the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong, winning high recognition and support from Hong Kong and the international community.
The Federation of Trade Unions pointed out that one year after the implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law, international investors are full of confidence in Hong Kong's prospects, and Hong Kong's international economic status has not been compromised.
The U.S. government's unprovoked bullying behavior is doomed to fail.
The Hong Kong New Democrat Party stated that the US government's accusation that American businessmen are taking risks in Hong Kong has greatly increased, and the accusation that the SAR government has suppressed human rights and freedom of the press is groundless.
Its purpose is to maliciously combat Hong Kong's status as an international financial and business center.
The so-called "sanctions" and warnings of the United States are invalid and will not affect the central government's policy towards Hong Kong.
The Chinese Chamber of Commerce of Hong Kong Importers and Exporters stated that the role of Hong Kong's national security law in society is obvious and unquestionable.

Such actions will inspire the people who love the country and Hong Kong to be more fearless and united.
