Hong Kong affairs are China's internal affairs, and no external interference will be tolerated, Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi said Sunday.
Wang made the remarks in response to a question on national security legislation for the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, at a press conference on the sidelines of the annual national legislative session.
Non-interference, as a basic norm of international relations, must be observed by all countries, Wang noted.
The central government is responsible for upholding national security, which is the same in any country, he said.
