US PASSING OF HK BILL CONDEMNED
    2019-11-29  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

VICE Foreign Minister Le Yucheng on Thursday summoned U.S. Ambassador to China Terry Branstad to lodge stern representations and strong protest against the United States signing of the so-called Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act of 2019 into law.


“China strongly urges the U.S. to correct its mistake and make a fresh start, not to put the Act into effect, and immediately stop meddling in Hong Kong affairs or interfering in China’s other internal affairs so as to avoid making further damage to bilateral ties and cooperation in important areas between China and the United States,” Le demanded.


As for the wrong move taken by the United States, China will take countermeasures in response and the U.S. must bear all the consequences that may ensue, he said.


The United States’ signing of the so-called Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act of 2019 into law is a severe interference in Hong Kong affairs, which are China’s internal affairs. It is also in serious violation of the international law and basic norms governing international relations. It is a gross hegemonic move, Le said, noting that the Chinese Government and the people express strong indignation and firm opposition against it.


Hong Kong is part of China and Hong Kong affairs are China’s internal affairs, brooking no interference from any foreign government or force, he said.


The Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council and the liaison office of the Central Government in Hong Kong also strongly condemned the signing of the so-called law.


The Hong Kong government also  expressed strong opposition to Trump’s move, saying it


obviously interfered in Hong Kong’s internal affairs and would harm the relations and interests between Hong Kong and the U.S.(Xinhua)
