China News Agency, Hong Kong, July 12th. In response to the so-called "parting speech" issued by the US Consul General in Hong Kong Smoker when he left office, which slandered China's Hong Kong-related policies and slandered the successful practice of "one country, two systems", the Office of the Commissioner of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region The spokesperson of the (Commissioner's Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Hong Kong) expressed firm opposition and strong condemnation on the 11th.
The spokesman said that the facts eloquently prove that after Hong Kong's return to the motherland, its economy has flourished, its status as an international financial, shipping and trade center is stable, its free and open world is the best in the world, and its business environment is world-class. Admiration, the bright light of the Oriental Pearl is even more brilliant.
"One country, two systems" has achieved universally recognized success. It has been repeatedly tested in practice. It serves the fundamental interests of the country and the nation, as well as the fundamental interests of Hong Kong. It is a good system that has been fully supported by more than 1.4 billion Chinese people.
The spokesperson emphasized that after Hong Kong's return to the motherland, the legal basis for the Chinese government to govern Hong Kong is the Chinese Constitution and the Hong Kong Basic Law, not the Sino-British Joint Declaration.
The "Sino-British Joint Declaration" on the basic principles and policies towards Hong Kong is a unilateral policy declaration made by China. It is purely China's internal affairs, and other countries have no right to interfere in Hong Kong affairs under the guise of the declaration.
The spokesperson emphasized that with the implementation of the national security law in Hong Kong and the successful practice of the new electoral system in the SAR, national security has been maintained, Hong Kong society has become more stable and united, the rule of law and justice have been upheld, and the rights and freedoms enjoyed by Hong Kong residents, such as speech, press, and association, have been enhanced. Better protection in a safe environment.
Hong Kong is ushering in a new situation of governance and prosperity, opening a new chapter of good governance and good governance.
The spokesperson pointed out that Hong Kong cannot be disrupted and cannot afford to be disrupted, and the development of Hong Kong cannot be delayed any longer. Individual US politicians are bucking the trend and are unwilling to miss any opportunity to attack and interfere with the development of China, including Hong Kong.
Smoker's self-proclaimed "U.S. policy towards Hong Kong has been the same for decades", in fact, he has consistently turned black and white, stirred up trouble, smeared and smeared in Hong Kong, and tried his best to subvert and infiltrate Hong Kong. A farce, while advertised as "We care about Hong Kong", while intimidating foreign investors in Hong Kong with "commercial warnings", its intention to disrupt Hong Kong and bring disaster to Hong Kong, and its anti-China and curb China plans are well known and abandoned by the world!
The "parting speech" of Smoker's sad departure from Hong Kong is a symbol of the complete bankruptcy of the US strategy of "using Hong Kong to contain China".
The spokesman reiterated that Hong Kong is currently in a new stage from chaos to governance to governance and prosperity. With the strong support of the central government and the strong backing of the great motherland, I believe that the new SAR government will unite and lead more than 7 million people. Hong Kong citizens will build, develop and govern Hong Kong well, and jointly write a new chapter in the practice of "one country, two systems"!
China's determination to safeguard national sovereignty, security and development interests is rock-solid, and its determination to oppose external interference in Hong Kong affairs is unshakable.
