UK headquarters of China Democracy Party was invited to attend the Free Hong Kong Declaration Conference of the Hong Kong Parliament Preparatory Committee
On January 1, 2025, the UK headquarters of the China Democratic Party was invited to attend a highly anticipated event held by the Hong Kong Parliament Preparatory Committee at the O2 in London – the launch of the Free Hong Kong Declaration and a Q&A banquet. This event attracted widespread attention from democrats from all over the world, representatives of Hong Kong immigrant communities and the media, and once again injected strength into the cause of democracy and freedom in Hong Kong.
The Free Hong Kong Declaration was released: calling on the international community to pay attention to Hong Kong
At the meeting, Mr. Yuan Gongyi, the initiator of the Hong Kong Parliament Preparatory Committee, delivered a speech. He said: The Free Hong Kong Declaration clearly stated that Hong Kong’s autonomy and freedom are not only the basic rights of the Hong Kong people, but also the values jointly maintained by the international community. The declaration calls on governments to take stronger actions to sanction relevant individuals and institutions that undermine Hong Kong’s democracy and urge the Chinese government to fulfill its commitments in the Sino-British Joint Declaration.
Yuan Gongyi said: “Freedom and human rights are universal values, and the spirit of resistance of the Hong Kong people will not be forgotten by history. We must unite and let the voice of Hong Kong be heard by the world.”
After the press conference, the participants attended a dinner with the theme of “Free Hong Kong”. During the dinner, everyone had in-depth exchanges and offered suggestions for common goals. The atmosphere was solemn and warm, showing the spirit of Hong Kong people to remain united in the face of difficulties.
This event is not only the release of a declaration, but also a symbol of unity. The support of the China Democratic Party UK Headquarters to the Hong Kong Parliament Preparatory Committee shows the cohesion of overseas democratic forces and lays the foundation for more cooperation in the future. After the event, many participants said that this press conference and dinner made them feel hope and strength, and also strengthened their determination to continue to fight for Hong Kong’s freedom and democracy.
Before the end of the event, members of the China Democratic Party UK Headquarters sang “Glory to Hong Kong” with all other participants. The passionate singing echoed in the scene, and the atmosphere was warm and touching. Many people could not hide their inner excitement, and tears flashed in their eyes. At this moment, everyone seemed to have regained the power of unity and the firm belief in freedom. The whole scene was solemn and full of hope. Free Hong Kong, everyone is responsible! May the fire of this struggle never go out!
Mr. Yuan Gongyi expressed his gratitude to the China Democracy Party UK Headquarters for their support and took a group photo with the participating party members.
