法新社记者：黎智英今天在香港被判有罪。英国以及“大赦国际”、“无国界记者”等非政府组织对此持批评态度。外交部有何回应？

AFP: I’d like to ask about Jimmy Lai who is convicted today in Hong Kong. The UK, Amnesty International, Reporters Without Borders and some NGOs have criticized the conviction today. Does the Foreign Ministry have a response to this?

郭嘉昆：香港是法治社会，中央政府坚定支持特区依法维护国家安全、惩治危害国家安全的犯罪行为。

Guo Jiakun: Hong Kong upholds the rule of law. The Central Government firmly supports the Hong Kong SAR in safeguarding national security and punishing crimes that endanger national security in accordance with the law.

中方对个别国家公然诋毁抹黑香港司法表示强烈不满和坚决反对。香港特区司法机关依法履职尽责，维护法律权威，捍卫国家安全，合情合理合法，不容置喙。有关司法案件纯属香港特区内部事务，我们敦促有关国家尊重中国主权，尊重香港法治，不得就特区司法案件审理发表不负责任的言论，不得以任何形式干预香港司法、干涉中国内政。

China deplores and firmly opposes certain country blatantly making false accusations against Hong Kong’s judicial affairs. Judicial authorities in Hong Kong SAR fulfill their duties, safeguard the authority of the law and defend national security in accordance with the law. This is justified, legitimate, lawful and beyond reproach. The relevant judicial case is purely Hong Kong’s internal affair. We urge relevant country to respect China’s sovereignty and the rule of law in Hong Kong, and refrain from making irresponsible remarks on the trial of judicial cases in Hong Kong SAR or meddling in Hong Kong’s judicial affairs and interfering in China’s internal affairs in any form.
