China News Service, Hong Kong, March 30 (Xinhua) The Hong Kong SAR government expressed strong opposition to the U.S.’s so-called 2024 Hong Kong Policy Act report and related statements by U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken on the 30th. Condemn and object.
The SAR government believes that the contents of relevant reports and statements are obviously prepared for the political purpose of protecting U.S. dominance. Stacking up stories to suppress the development rights and security interests of other places is a product clearly created to serve the United States' own political interests.
A spokesman for the SAR government said that the United States has repeated its old tricks, making fallacies about politics over the rule of law and confusing right and wrong on various aspects of the Hong Kong SAR. It blatantly interferes in Hong Kong affairs, which are China's internal affairs, and attempts to undermine Hong Kong's prosperity and stability. The result will only be ugly and absolutely unacceptable. Will not succeed.
The spokesperson pointed out that the so-called "sanctions" previously arbitrarily implemented as mentioned in the so-called report of the United States and the related statement threatening to impose so-called "visa restrictions" are all despicable political operations in an attempt to intimidate Hong Kong SAR personnel who safeguard national security and blatantly target them. Interference in China's internal affairs and Hong Kong affairs violates international law and basic norms governing international relations. The Hong Kong SAR scorns the so-called "sanctions" and "visa restrictions" of the United States. It is not afraid of any intimidation and unswervingly fulfills its responsibility to safeguard national security.
The spokesperson reiterated that the SAR government resolutely safeguards national sovereignty, security and development interests, and fully and accurately implements the highest principle of "one country, two systems". The SAR government will unswervingly and comprehensively and accurately implement the Hong Kong National Security Law, the "Maintenance of National Security Ordinance" and other relevant laws of the Hong Kong SAR to safeguard national security, effectively prevent, stop and punish behaviors and activities that endanger national security in accordance with the law, and at the same time protect the rights and interests of Hong Kong citizens in accordance with the law. rights and freedoms to ensure the steady and long-term practice of "one country, two systems". The SAR government strongly demands that the United States immediately stop actions that are inconsistent with international law and basic norms of international relations, and immediately stop interfering in China's internal affairs and Hong Kong affairs.
