This file photo taken on September 14, 2019 shows pro-China supporters singing the national anthem inside a shopping mall in the Kowloon Bay district of Hong Kong. – Hong Kong’s legislature voted for a Beijing-backed law banning insults to China’s national anthem on June 4, 2020, a move critics say further stifles dissent in the restless semi-autonomous financial hub.
President Donald Trump announced Friday that the US will revoke special trading privileges granted to Hong Kong after Beijing moved to tighten its grip on the semi-autonomous city with plans to impose a national security law. The move adds to growing friction between the world’s two biggest economies amid the coronavirus crisis and in the wake of a two-year trade war that has not been fully resolved.
“If the United States disregards the fundamental principles of international relations and adopts unilateral measures according to its domestic laws, it will violate WTO rules and will not be in the interest of the United States,” Chinese Ministry of Commerce spokesman Gao Feng said at a regular press briefing.
