The Hong Kong Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs warns European Parliament politicians that using Hong Kong to contain China is destined to fail. Politicians | Hong Kong | European Parliament
The spokesperson for the Hong Kong Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed strong dissatisfaction and strong opposition to the so-called Hong Kong related resolution passed by the European Parliament, which openly supported anti China and anti Hong Kong elements such as Lai Chi ying, clamored for sanctions against the Chinese central government and officials of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, rudely interfered in Hong Kong affairs and China's internal affairs, and trampled on the principles of international law and basic principles of international relations. They strongly condemned it.
The spokesperson stated that Hong Kong is a society governed by the rule of law, and no one has any privileges above the law. No rights or freedoms can infringe on the public interest of society. This is a clear provision in international conventions and a common practice in the legal practice of various countries. Criminals such as Lai Chi ying collude with external forces to endanger national security, deliberately undermine the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong, and harm the interests and well-being of Hong Kong citizens. The judicial organs of the Special Administrative Region strictly conduct public trials in accordance with the law, reflecting the principle of the rule of law that must be followed, law enforcement must be strict, and violations must be investigated. It is a necessary move to defend the authority of Hong Kong's national security law and maintain social peace and tranquility in Hong Kong. The case is still under trial, the procedures are open and legal, impeccable, and cannot be questioned!
The spokesperson pointed out that European Parliament politicians do not take national economy and people's livelihood as their own responsibility, but instead use the Hong Kong issue to create a show, maliciously slander Hong Kong's national security law and the rule of law under the pretext of "human rights", "democracy", and "freedom", clamor for sanctions against Chinese officials, and justify criminals. However, it is because they can no longer fish in the troubled waters of Hong Kong's "turmoil" and have been pricked by Hong Kong's "prosperity" that they crazily attack and smear Hong Kong's "governance". This despicable behavior, which is willing to be instigated by anti China and anti Hong Kong forces and only seeks political capital, is nothing but a poor political performance!
The spokesperson emphasized that the trend of Hong Kong's transition from chaos and governance to governance and prosperity is irreversible and unstoppable. The political drama of a few foreign politicians cannot shake the firm determination of the SAR government to govern Hong Kong in accordance with the law and punish crimes, nor can it shake the strong will of the central and SAR governments to maintain national security, nor can it shake the historical trend of "One Country, Two Systems" achieving stability and far-reaching development. We warn politicians in the European Parliament to recognize the situation, correct their positions, change course, stop silent, immediately stop the futile act of sheltering and beautifying illegal criminals, immediately stop the bullying behavior of threatening sanctions, and immediately abandon the delusions of using Hong Kong to contain China and beyond their own capabilities!
