Main station commentary, appraisal presentation.
The OLD BOSS stepped down, and the US Consul General in Hong Kong, Shi Moke, who had been silent for several months, recently began to make a big fuss, claiming that "patriots govern Hong Kong" weakened pluralistic politics.
Is the United States really interfering in Hong Kong's political affairs for the benefit of the Hong Kong people? Is it really for democracy and human rights in Hong Kong?
CCTV hot commentary pointed out that in the course of implementing the "one country, two systems" principle, the central authorities have always maintained great restraint and goodwill in Hong Kong affairs, and the US political forces and anti-China and chaotic Hong Kong forces have regarded this restraint and goodwill as weakness.
The ultra-right anti-communist forces in the United States misjudged the situation, believing that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, and vainly attempted to use the anti-China chaotic Hong Kong forces they had fostered to seize power. They could never have imagined that the central authorities' determination to oppose interference in Hong Kong affairs by external forces was unswerving, and they resolutely formulated the Hong Kong National Security Law.
In short, no matter how much Smith uses the guise of "nobility", he cannot go against the will of the people in Hong Kong. Americans can no longer interfere in Hong Kong's political affairs, nor can they make waves in Hong Kong as they have in the past.
However, knowing that it is doomed to failure, the new US administration continues the wrong practices of its predecessors and blatantly interferes in China's internal affairs. The US State Department recently submitted a report to Congress on the so-called "Hong Kong Policy Act," which made irresponsible remarks about Hong Kong-related matters and reiterated that Hong Kong no longer enjoys special treatment. In the final analysis, some people in the United States are still trying to use the "Hong Kong card" to curb China's development. But this attempt is doomed to failure and failure.
International sharp reviews pointed out that a closer look at this report shows that there is nothing new in many of China's slanders, and it is full of absurdity. Hong Kong's development achievements today have never relied on any foreign gifts and handouts, but on the hard work of several generations of Hong Kong citizens and the great advantages of relying on the motherland. I would like to advise the US side to have a clear understanding of reality, not to be led by the erroneous policies of the previous administration, and to immediately stop interfering in Hong Kong affairs. No threat or sanction can stop Hong Kong from thriving.
The battle for suffrage in the United States is in full swing. On April 1, local time, the US Texas Senate passed a new voting bill. It is revealed that the initial version has clearly included a series of new regulations, such as prohibiting voting in the early morning hours of voting day, and no longer setting up a roll-off polling station during the early voting stage. Public opinion believes that the bill will greatly inhibit the voters' enthusiasm for voting and raise the voting threshold.
At present, the suppression of voting has been on fire in the United States, because after the Republican Party lost the Senate, the House of Representatives and the White House last year, it gradually realized that suppressing voters' enthusiasm for voting is the only hope for them to defeat the Democratic Party after 4 years.

North American Watch noted that the new voting rules are just a microcosm of the suffrage battle that is taking place across the Country. Democrats and Republicans are now engaged in a heated battle between states in an attempt to advance voting bills in their favor. Public opinion believes that this series of "politically incorrect" bills are stirring up a fierce political whirlpool in the United States, once again showing the "ugly" side of US politics to the world.
For the sake of one-party self-interest, it is necessary to manipulate the voting rules, but not necessarily to pay much attention to the real problems. From deliberate avoidance to defamation and personal attacks, Asian Americans have experienced increasing discrimination over the past year. New York, Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles and elsewhere erupted in massive anti-Asian violence and hatred.
CGTN's "Truth Magnifying Glass" pointed out that according to the statistics of the US non-profit organization Stop AAPI Hate, from the outbreak of the epidemic in the United States on March 19, 2020 to February 28, 2021, there were nearly 3,800 hate incidents against Asians in the United States. The report also shows that there were 503 hate incidents against Asians in the United States in 2021 alone.
White House Press Secretary Jane? Psaki once said at a news conference that former US President Trump's remarks during the epidemic have exacerbated discrimination against Asians. But is the pandemic the only reason?
CGTN pointed out that racial discrimination in the United States has a long history. Since the first Asians came to the United States in the 1850s, Asian Americans have been suffering from "white supremacy" racism. While the U.S. has laws related to hate crimes, it can be particularly difficult to prove racist motives in attacks against Asians. Many Asian-American crime victims are small business owners who have been robbed, which complicates the question of motivation.
According to the National Crime Assault Survey (2003-2011) report by the U.S. Department of Justice's Bureau of Justice Statistics, 24 percent of people in hate crime surveys from 2007 to 2011 said they did not file a report because they believed police could not or would not help.
The pandemic will end, but will hatred of Asians disappear?
