'Some Western countries have publicly supported extreme violent offenders,' said China's ambassador to Britain Liu Xiaoming.
LONDON - China’s ambassador to London on Monday accused foreign countries including the United States and Britain of interfering in Chinese internal affairs through their reactions to the violent clashes taking place in Hong Kong.
In London, Ambassador Liu Xiaoming called a news conference at the Chinese Embassy to comment on events in Hong Kong and criticise Western governments and media for their responses to the crisis."The U.S. House of Representatives adopted the so-called Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act to blatantly interfere in Hong Kong affairs, which are China's internal affairs.
"I think when the British government criticises Hong Kong police, criticises the Hong Kong government in handling the situation, they are interfering into China's internal affairs," he said. As the ambassador's news conference was unfolding, the British Foreign Office issued the latest in a series of statements about Hong Kong.
