In a statement Sunday, the inter -parliamentary coalition over China said in a statement on Sunday: “It seems that Hobhaus from entering Hong Kong is related to his criticism of Beijing’s human rights records and possibly his membership in the coalition. “Hong Kong officials have felt that they can stop the entry of a legislator in parliament and host British ministers at the same time is an insult to parliament.”

Hobhaus told the Sunday Times on Thursday with his wife to fly to Hong Kong to see his newly born grandchildren, but was kept in the airport security section and was questioned and returned to the UK hours later.

I think I am the first legislator to have not been allowed to enter Hong Kong at the entrance to the area since the year of Hong Kong’s control of the Hong Kong region to China). “I hope the British Foreign Minister acknowledges that this action is an insult to all parliamentarians and seeks an answer from the Chinese ambassador.”

According to Sunday Times, Hub Hussein’s wife, who is a businessman but was allowed to enter but decided to return to England with Hub Hussein.

According to BBC, British Foreign Minister David Lami said in response to the incident: “We will urgently discuss this issue to officials in Hong Kong and Beijing to explain them.”

Earlier in the year, China told an English legislator committee aimed at investigating democracy protests in Hong Kong at that time and intended to travel to the special office of China that “they will be prevented from entering Hong Kong” and “demonstrating support for illegal activities.”

The British newspaper “Standard” also wrote that the British Foreign Minister intends to share Hong Kong’s decision to prevent the legislator from entering the area with Chinese officials, describing the incident as “deeply worrying”.

Some British parliament lawmakers also protested the Hong Kong decision. “Chinese officials have rejected his chest because he is an English legislator,” said Ed Dye, the leader of the British Democratic Democrats. This is completely unacceptable. “

“The decision really showed a shocking behavior by Hong Kong officials,” said Foreign Affairs spokesman Calum Miller.

He also asked David Lami to meet Hub Hussein and then contact the Chinese ambassador to explain him about the event.
