The National People's Congress of China voted to pass the "Decision on Improving the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region's Electoral System (Draft)" on March 11, and many countries expressed concern.
Following the United Kingdom, the United States also criticized Beijing's move, saying that this move was China's continued suppression of Hong Kong's democracy.
US State Department spokesperson Ned Price said at a regular press conference that the decision made by the National People’s Congress directly undermined Hong Kong’s autonomy, freedom, and democratic process, while restricting political participation, reducing democratic representation and restraining political discussions. .
