The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region government has strongly opposed the so-called "2025 Annual Report" issued by the US Congressional-Executive Commission on China (CECC), which, it says, made biased, slanderous, and smearing remarks about the HKSAR.
Stressing that the HKSAR government strongly disapproves of the CECC's repeated tactics to interfere in Hong Kong’s affairs through the so-called annual report, a government spokesman said in a statement that the US is once again overriding the rule of law with politics and making unfounded and fact-twisting remarks.
“Such attempt to undermine the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong and interfere in Hong Kong's law-based governance is doomed to fail.”
The SAR government steadfastly safeguards national sovereignty, security and development interests, and fully and faithfully lives up to the highest principle of "one country, two systems", the spokesperson reiterated.
