China firmly opposes any other countries to interfere in its internal affairs in any form, said Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Zhang Qiyue Tuesday.

"Hong Kong is China's Hong Kong and its affairs are the internal affairs of China," said Zhang when asked to comment on the so-called report on Hong Kong issued by the British Foreign Ministry.

"It is improper for the British government to comment on the Hong Kong affairs at random," she said.

Hong Kong is the special administrative region under the central government and implementation of the principle of "one country, two systems" is the fundamental guarantee for the long-term prosperity and stability of Hong Kong, she said.

The political institutions of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) should accord with the Basic Law, which is beneficial to the long-term stability and prosperity of HKSAR and in the all-round and long-term interests of HKSAR, she said.

To keep the long-term stability and prosperity is in the interests of all Chinese people including the Hong Kong compatriots, in the interests of the international community and especially in the interests of foreign investors, she stressed.

She expressed her hope that the British side would keep their promises made by British leaders of making HKSAR the bridge of Sino-British friendship.
