US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo visited the United Kingdom on July 21. After meeting with Prime Minister Boris Johnson, he held a press conference with Foreign Minister Dominic Raab. Both sides agreed to strengthen cooperation and defend everyone's value.

Lan Taowen said that Pompeo expressed his opinions on the Hong Kong issue and the two sides discussed the next steps, including becoming one of the issues of the G7 meeting. He pointed out that the United Kingdom clearly understands that it is cooperating with the United States, its ally, and working with partners in other international systems to protect everyone's freedom and interests, and at the same time step up like the Hong Kong issue to defend everyone's value.

Pompeo believes that China should have prevented the outbreak of the new coronavirus (COVID-19), describing Beijing's actions as shameful. He pointed out that China should not oppress other countries and conceal the truth. He called on all countries to stop China's threats. He hoped that all countries that understand and value freedom and democracy clearly understand that the people and national sovereignty face the CCP's threat, so everyone should work together to respond.

He also pointed out that the UK had made the right decision to abandon Huawei's participation in the construction of the local 5G network, and emphasized that it did not hope that private information belonging to the American people would fall into the hands of the CCP. Lan Taowen mentioned that the two parties discussed the possibility of decentralizing the 5G equipment supply chain.

In addition, Pompeo also talked about trade relations between the United Kingdom and the United States, saying that the two countries will hold the third round of free trade agreement negotiations later in July, and he hopes that an agreement can be reached as soon as possible. Lan Taowen stated that Britain can reach a win-win trade agreement with the United States to increase trade with Washington.
