China strongly opposes any foreign intervention in Hong Kong affairs, said Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang in Beijing Friday.
Qin made the remarks when asked to comment on a resolution passed by the European Parliament which advocates Hong Kong's universal suffrage.
"Hong Kong affairs are China's internal affairs, and China resolutely opposes any foreign wanton intervention and indiscreet comments on the Hong Kong affairs," the spokesman said.
Qin said the Chinese government has always attached great importance to and actively supported the orderly and gradual development of Hong Kong's democratic system in accordance with the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) and its actual situation.
This consistent stand of the central government will never change, and the HKSAR government will also make unremitting efforts to this end.
