China Bans UK MPs From Hong Kong Visit

Written By Unknown on Senin, 01 Desember 2014 | 00.27

China has been accused of "overtly confrontational" behaviour after saying it will ban a group of British MPs from visiting Hong Kong.

The Government committee had planned to visit the former British colony as part of an inquiry into its relations with the UK 30 years after the declaration which led to its handover.

The Chinese embassy said if the group attempted the visit in December then they would be turned away.

Sir Richard Ottaway, chairman of the Commons Foreign Affairs Committee, said: "I have been informed by the Chinese embassy that if we attempt to travel to Hong Kong we will be refused entry."

He added: "The Chinese government are acting in an overtly confrontational manner in refusing us access to do our job."

Sir Richard said he would be calling for an emergency debate in the House of Commons on Monday.

It comes as Hong Kong struggles to restore order as pro-democracy protesters continue their campaign to choose their own leaders without interference from China.

The joint declaration between China and the UK was signed in 1984 and led to the handover in 1997.
