U.S. Secretary of State Pompeo issued a statement through the U.S. State Department on the imprisonment of former Hong Kong Secretary General Huang Zhifeng, member Zhou Ting, and Chairman Lin Langyan. He also criticized the Hong Kong government for political prosecutions against democrats, and the United States will continue to cooperate with allies and the world. Partners everywhere work together to defend the rights and freedoms of the Hong Kong people.

British Foreign Minister Lan Taowen also issued a statement urging the Hong Kong and Beijing authorities to stop suppressing the opposition.

A spokesperson for the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council said today (4th) that a small number of politicians in the United States, Britain and other countries wantonly vilified the Hong Kong judiciary’s judgments against Huang Zhifeng and the other three persons in accordance with the law, and interfered with undermining the rule of law and judicial independence in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. He strongly condemned this and said It warned it to immediately stop the erroneous act of supporting the anti-China chaos in Hong Kong.

The spokesperson said that on June 21, 2019, Huang Zhifeng, Lin Langyan, and Zhou Ting premeditated and systematically incited thousands of people to surround the police headquarters for a long time. The court relied on solid facts and after the three defendants had pleaded guilty, He was sentenced to imprisonment in accordance with the law. It is also said that all sectors of the Hong Kong society generally believe that this sentence demonstrates judicial justice and the authority of the rule of law, safeguards public interests, is conducive to alerting defrauded young people, and pushing Hong Kong back to the right track of the rule of law.

The spokesperson pointed out that, however, a few politicians in the United States, Britain and other countries have ignored the facts, turned black and white, and branded Huang Zhifeng and others as "democracy fighters," instead slandering legitimate law enforcement, prosecution and judicial actions as "political persecution" and "undermining freedom of speech." The ridiculous request for immediate release of the defendant, and threats to jointly apply pressure and impose sanctions, "it is extremely absurd and unreasonable!" The Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office has blatantly interfered with the rule of law and judicial independence of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and grossly interfered in the internal affairs of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. He strongly condemned China’s internal affairs.

The spokesperson pointed out that Huang Zhifeng and others, who have been called "democracy fighters" by foreign politicians, have long promoted the so-called "self-determination" and other "Hong Kong independence" propositions, established "Hong Kong independence" radical organizations to link up with "Taiwan independence" elements; "China" and took the lead in attacking the front of the east wing of the government headquarters. He was convicted and sentenced many times. During the "Regulations" period, he frequently "filed against foreigners," actively pushing the United States to pass Hong Kong-related bills and openly begging foreign countries to impose sanctions on Hong Kong. .

At the same time, they also encouraged the students to "unlawful and justify", "brave resistance" and "seeking speculation in Hong Kong."

The Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office also criticized Huang Zhifeng for his willingness to act as a "pawn" for external anti-China forces. In the name of "democracy," he used "democracy" to instigate riots, harm Hong Kong and sell Hong Kong, and harm students. This is one of the chief culprits that undermines Hong Kong's prosperity and stability.

The spokesperson emphasized that no matter how glamorous the anti-China chaos in Hong Kong may be, no matter what protective umbrella is behind them, no matter where in the world they fled to, they have no privilege to evade criminal responsibility. Any foreign or external forces try to pass. Joint pressure, sanctions, threats, and other means to force the Chinese central government and the government of the special administrative region to abandon their just actions to uphold the rule of law are "all foolish dreams and irresponsible measures."
