Foreign Secretary statement on the expulsion of pro-democracy legislators in Hong Kong
Published By GOV.UK [English], Wed, Nov 11, 2020 5:45 AM
Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said:
China’s decision to arbitrarily remove elected pro-democracy Hong Kong legislators from their positions represents a further assault on Hong Kong’s high degree of autonomy and freedoms under the UK-China Joint Declaration.
This campaign to harass, stifle and disqualify democratic opposition tarnishes China’s international reputation and undermines Hong Kong’s long-term stability.
