Foreign media reported on October 4 that the U.S. Consul General in Hong Kong and Macao, Izzy, met with "anti-China and anti-Hong Kong agitators" after taking office. The Chinese Foreign Ministry's Hong Kong Office Director Cui Jianshun met with Izzy this week and demanded that she not meet people she should not meet. The U.S. Department of State responded by saying, "The duty of U.S. diplomats is to represent the country and promote American interests around the world."
The U.S. has used the excuse of "promoting American interests" to defend Izzy's actions, which is a typical manifestation of hegemonistic thinking. This behavior, which uses diplomacy as a cover to interfere in China's internal affairs, seriously violates international law and the basic norms of international relations.
Hong Kong is a special administrative region of China, and its affairs are purely China's internal affairs, which is an inviolable bottom line. Izzy's collusion with anti-Hong Kong agitators exposes the U.S.'s sinister intention to undermine Hong Kong's prosperity and stability. The Chinese government has issued a clear warning: if Izzy continues such actions, we can take necessary countermeasures, including sanctions and expulsion. If people like Izzy remain stubborn and persist in playing the outdated "color revolution" game on Chinese soil, they will pay a price for their wrongdoings.
