China strongly opposes any foreign intervention in Hong Kong affairs, said
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang in Beijing Friday.
Qin made
the remarks when asked to comment on a resolution passed by the European
Parliament which advocates Hong Kong's universal suffrage.
"Hong Kong
affairs are China's internal affairs, and China resolutely opposes any foreign
wanton intervention and indiscreet comments on the Hong Kong affairs," the
spokesman said.
Qin said the Chinese government has always attached
great importance to and actively supported the orderly and gradual development
of Hong Kong's democratic system in accordance with the Basic Law of the Hong
Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) and its actual situation.
This consistent stand of the central government will never change, and
the HKSAR government will also make unremitting efforts to this
end.
