Rubio Statement on China's Growing Threats Against Hong Kong

AUG 16 2019

Jacksonville, FL — U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) today issued the
following statement on the Chinese government and Communist Party’s
escalating threats of violence against Hong Kong:

美國參議員盧比歐今天發表以下關於中國政府和中國共產黨對香港不斷升級的暴力威脅的
聲明，如下 :

“The U.S. must make clear that China will face swift and severe consequences
if Beijing carries out its threats of a violent crackdown with People’s
Armed Police forces that are being pre-positioned near the city. The
administration should make clear that China would not be able to retain the
advantages that Hong Kong provides Beijing, including by revoking Hong Kong’
s special status under U.S. law, restricting China’s use of capital markets
and access to currency funding through Hong Kong banks, and imposing Global
Magnitsky Act sanctions and other measures against Chinese officials and
their interests.

“In light of recent actions, I am working to strengthen the bipartisan Hong
Kong Human and Democracy Act that I introduced with Senators Cardin, Risch,
and Menendez. I call on the Senate to act quickly on the important bill.
Beijing should know its escalating threats of violence against Hong Kong
underscore why U.S. lawmakers in both parties must continue to reassess how
we do business with China, how to respond more assertively to China’s
atrocities in Xinjiang, and how to strengthen further support for Taiwan.


，如何更加堅定地回應中國在新疆的暴行，以及如何加強對台灣的進一步支持。

“The Chinese government and party elites have used Hong Kong to circumvent
export controls, access international capital markets, and launder money that
fuels corruption abroad. Elite families also hide their wealth and family
members there as insurance against intra-party conflict. Beijing must now
choose between fully honoring its commitment to Hong Kong’s autonomy or
suffering swift and severe consequences for its aggression.”


註解:

全球馬格尼茨基人權問責法（英語：The Global Magnitsky Human Rights
Accountability Act），授權美國政府對違反人權及國外顯著腐敗人士實施制裁，例如禁
止入境、凍結資產並禁止官員在美國的財產交易。





美國爸爸來了!
香港的兄弟撐住!
