【英國財相李韻晴訪華期間必須以身作則捍衛人權與民主】

Today, we issued a statement in response to the U.K. Chancellor Rachel Reeves’ long-anticipated China visit this weekend.

We call on the U.K. Government to:
1. Prioritise human rights with concrete action plans in her meetings with PRC officials;
2.  Secure an immediate release of the 1,917 political prisoners in Hong Kong;
3. Impose targeted, Magnitsky-style sanctions on Hong Kong human-rights offenders without further delay;
4. Refuse to use any engagement with China — restarting the annual UK-China Economic and Financial Dialogue — as a bargaining chip, where economic interests are traded at the expense of fundamental human rights;
5. Revoke the privileges and immunities granted to the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office in London;
6. Endorse the Tower Hamlets Council’s decision to block construction of a brand new Chinese ‘super embassy’ complex.
