Pompeo ignorant on four areas on HK issues says China’s Foreign Ministry

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo fabricates and disseminates rumors so frequently that it reveals his ignorance and prejudice against China, the spokesperson of China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said, highlighting four things that embody Pompeo’s ignorance.
Zhao Lijian made the remarks at a Thursday press conference, when he was asked to comment on Pompeo’s statement that Beijing treats Hong Kong as « one country, one system, » and undermines the Hong Kong people’s human rights and basic freedom.
Zhao presented four things to explain Pompeo’s ignorance.
For one, he knows nothing about the national security law for Hong Kong, which clearly states that human rights should be respected and protected. « The law punishes the very few while protecting the majority. After the law was enacted, Hong Kong’s social order will be stabilized and the business environment will be improved, which will benefit the majority of Hong Kong residents and international investors. »
