Will retaliate to US bill on Hong Kong, says China

TIL Desk/World/Beijing/ China has warned the US that it will retaliate strongly to the US Lower House passing the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act, which seeks to subject the former British colony”s special status to Washington”s scrutiny.

“China will definitely take strong counter measures in response to the wrong decisions by the US to defend its sovereignty, security and development interests,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Geng Shuang said in a statement published on its website.

In this regard, Beijing expressed its opposition and outrage to the US House of Representatives passing the draft law, and urged Washington “to come to a clear assessment of the situation” and “stop meddling in Hong Kong affairs and China”s internal affairs before falling off the edge of the cliff.”
