Last update date: 2020-07-03 12:47The "Minato City National Security Law" came into effect at 11 pm on June 30. German Chancellor Angela Merkel said on July 2 that Germany has no special measures to help Hong Kong people affected by the new law take refuge.
Merkel said at the press conference that Europe must maintain a dialogue with China, because the latter is very important for the world, especially for Europe.
Britain and Australia all plan to provide visas or asylum to Hong Kong people. Merkel said that the German asylum policy applies to people from all regions, so he believes that Germany has no plans to introduce new measures for Hong Kong people.
When talking about the country's provision of escape routes to Hong Kong people, she said: "Germany's right of asylum is provided to people all over the world, so I don't think it is necessary to take further action on this."
Merkel said that the EU will continue to dialogue with China on national security laws, emphasized that Beijing has important strategic relations in the EU, and that both parties should maintain mutual trust and allow free speech. She pointed out that disagreement is inevitable, but hope to achieve a common result.
