The European Union smeared Hong Kong’s electoral system and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs refuted: It is not the turn of any external force to make irresponsible remarks!
On May 9, Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Zhao Lijian presided over a regular press conference. A reporter asked: The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region completed the election of the new Chief Executive on the 8th. The EU said in a statement that it regretted that the electoral process further disintegrated the principle of “one country, two systems” and violated democratic principles and political pluralism. What is China’s response?
Zhao Lijian said that the spokespersons of the Commissioner’s Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Hong Kong and the Chinese Mission to the European Union have responded to this. On May 8, the election of the sixth chief executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region was successfully held, and Mr. Li Jiachao was elected with a high vote. The election process is in accordance with laws and regulations, fair, just and orderly. This result fully demonstrates the democratic and advanced nature of the new electoral system in the Hong Kong SAR, and shows that the new electoral system is a good system that conforms to the principle of “one country, two systems” and the actual situation of Hong Kong. Strong consensus. It is believed that the new Chief Executive will lead the new SAR government and people from all walks of life to jointly create a new situation of good governance and good governance in Hong Kong.
Zhao Lijian pointed out that at a time when Hong Kong’s new electoral system has taken root in an all-round way and the development of democracy has been optimized and improved, external forces such as the European Union jumped out impatiently, pointing and attacking and smearing the process and results of this election. This fully exposed their true face of interfering in China’s internal affairs and undermining the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong under the banner of democracy and freedom. They applaud the “pan-politicized” and raging fake democracy, but they are on pins and needles for the real democracy that conforms to the reality of Hong Kong and implements “patriots ruling Hong Kong”. All the Chinese people, including the vast number of Hong Kong compatriots, have long regarded their “double standards of democracy” very clearly. In today’s Hong Kong, this system no longer works, and their intervention tricks no longer work.
Zhao Lijian emphasized that Hong Kong is a special administrative region of China, and how and who is elected in Hong Kong’s election is entirely China’s internal affairs, and it is not up to any external force to make irresponsible remarks. Some Western countries should face up to the fact that Hong Kong has returned to China 25 years ago, recognize the general trend of Hong Kong’s transition from chaos to governance, and immediately stop any attempt to disrupt Hong Kong and contain China.
