港僑會創辦人 #鄭文傑 會同 下議院外交事務委員會議員 Bob Seely 及 前外交部常務秘書長、前國家安全顧問、上議院議員 Peter Ricketts 男爵 與 英國廣播公司 「#新聞之夜」 (BBC Newsnight) 主持人 Faisal Islam 討論 外交大臣 James Cleverly 訪問北京後的 #英中關係。
鄭文傑強調，英國官員接觸的中共統治階級不能代表廣大民眾的利益，即使英政府指中國的體量巨大令接觸變得無可避免，亦應減少誤判，杜絕向獨裁政權發出「無條件示好」的錯誤訊息，不令該政權自滿而確信權勢優先，以為消滅港人自由亳無後果，反而助長對內鎭壓人權的氣燄、催化對外勢力擴張的野心。
HKB founder Simon Cheng, together with Bob Seely MP and Lord Ricketts, had joined BBC Newsnight to discuss UK-China relations following Foreign Secretary James Cleverly's visit to Beijing. Simon Cheng emphasised that the Chinese ruling class that British officials contacted may not represent the interests of the general public. Even if the British government justifies such engagement with China due to it's size and status, we should not fuel the arrogance of autocracy to believe suppressing rights and expanding its power could meet less and even no diplomatic consequences.
