Report on HK by US criticized

China expressed strong dissatisfaction and firm opposition on Wednesday over the Hong Kong Policy Act Report released by the United States State Department. Hong Kong is a special administrative region of China and Hong Kong affairs fall within China's domestic affairs; therefore, no foreign country should attempt to interfere, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said at a regular news briefing. She added the Chinese government is resolute in comprehensively carrying forward the principle of "one country, two systems" based on the Constitution and Basic Law.
