Commissioner’s Office warns European Parliament politicians that Hong Kong’s good governance brooks no interference or damage
2022-01-21 10:00

The spokesperson of the Office of the Commissioner of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China in the HKSAR strongly disapproved and firmly rejected the so-called Hong Kong-related resolution of the European Parliament, which smeared Hong Kong’s democracy and freedom, called for sanctions against central government and Hong Kong government officials, and asked for boycott of Beijing Winter Olympic Games. When Hong Kong was in chaos years ago, the central government acted decisively in adopting the National Security Law for the HKSAR, improving Hong Kong’s electoral system, and firmly implementing the principle of “patriots administering Hong Kong”. These measures made Hong Kong transform from chaos to stability and prosperity, and brought Hong Kong’s democratic development back on track. Hong Kong has since taken on a new look of sound and effective governance.

The spokesperson said that there was no democracy in Hong Kong under British colonial rule, and the Chinese government is the designer, builder, promoter and defender of Hong Kong’s democratic system. In disregard of history and reality, the European Parliament has repeatedly smeared Hong Kong and attacked China under the pretext of so-called “democracy and freedom” for a publicity stunt. It shows their unreasonable, ignorant and shameless nature. They claim to “stand with Hong Kong”, but in fact harbor no good intentions. They don’t want to see a stable and prosperous Hong Kong and try to whitewash anti-china elements in Hong Kong. They are still daydreaming of using Hong Kong as a bridgehead against China. Their self-deceiving political farce and ill intentions are doomed to fail.

The spokesperson pointed out that Europe is following some others in exporting so-called “democracy” and has descended to an accomplice in creating regional chaos and harming innocent people. In violation of international law and the basic norms governing international relations, the European Parliament once again judged others’ democracy with condensation and interfered in Hong Kong affairs and China’s internal affairs, which is unacceptable.

The spokesperson stressed that the Chinese people never give into coercion or intimidation. Some politicians have repeatedly resorted to political bullying of sanctions and boycott of Olympics, precisely exposing their arrogance and hysteria and will find themselves on a collision course with a great wall of steel forged by over 1.4 billion Chinese people.

The spokesperson reiterated that Hong Kong is part of China and brooks no external interference. Nothing can change China’s firm determination to safeguard the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong and promote the sustained success of “one country, two systems”. We urge some politicians of the European Parliament to follow the historical trend, change course, stop the political hysteria against China and Hong Kong, stop bullying acts of threatening to impose sanctions, and stop interfering in Hong Kong affairs and China’s internal affairs in any form.
