  (一)“全面准确、坚定不移贯彻‘一国两制’方针”

  "One country, two systems" is an important chapter in the glorious history of the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s century-long struggle.

  The Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Party held in December 1978 opened a new era of reform, opening up and socialist modernization. Under this background, Comrade Deng Xiaoping creatively put forward the scientific concept of "one country, two systems" from the reality of our country, respecting history and reality, and opened up a new way to realize the reunification of the motherland by peaceful means.

  On July 1, 1997, the China government resumed the exercise of sovereignty over Hong Kong, and the establishment of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region opened a new era in Hong Kong’s history. Under the guidance of the principle of "one country, two systems", the issue of Macao’s return to the motherland has also been successfully resolved. After returning to the motherland, Hong Kong and Macao have been reintegrated into the national governance system and embarked on a broad road of complementary advantages and common development with the mainland of the motherland.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has made a series of important expositions and major decision-making arrangements on "one country, two systems" and the work of Hong Kong and Macao from a strategic and overall perspective, and promoted the cause of "one country, two systems" to gain new experience and achieve new development.

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed:

  "We must firmly establish ‘ One country ’ Consciousness, stick to ‘ One country ’ Principle, correctly handle the relationship between the special administrative region and the central government. Any activity that endangers national sovereignty and security, challenges the central power and the authority of the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, and uses Hong Kong to infiltrate and destroy the mainland is a touch on the bottom line and must not be allowed. "

  "In ‘ One country ’ On the basis of ‘ Two systems ’ The relationship between them should and can be harmonious and mutually promoted. Adhere to ‘ One country ’ Principles and respect ‘ Two systems ’ Differences, safeguarding central power and safeguarding the high degree of autonomy of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, giving full play to the strong backing role of the mainland and improving Hong Kong’s own competitiveness can not be neglected at any time. "

  (B) "Promote the situation in Hong Kong from chaos to governance"

  While the practice of "one country, two systems" has achieved great success, it has also encountered some new situations and problems.

  The Resolution states: "A period is influenced by various internal and external complex factors, ‘ Anti-China port disorder ’ The activities were rampant and the situation in Hong Kong was once grim. " Especially in a period of time after the storm of amending laws in 2019, "anti-China disorderly Hong Kong" forces deliberately disrupted the social order in Hong Kong, and some foreign and overseas forces interfered in China’s internal affairs at will, seriously challenging the bottom line of the principle of "one country, two systems", seriously damaging the authority of the rule of law, and seriously endangering national sovereignty, security and development interests. We must take effective measures to prevent, stop and punish it according to law.

  The Resolution emphasizes that "it must be comprehensively, accurately and unswervingly implemented ‘ One country, two systems ’ Policy, persistence and perfection ‘ One country, two systems ’ Institutional system, adhere to the rule of law governing Hong Kong and Macao, maintain the constitutional order of the Special Administrative Region as determined by the Constitution and the Basic Law, implement the central government’s comprehensive governance over the Special Administrative Region, and firmly implement ‘ Patriots govern Hong Kong ’ 、‘ Patriots govern Australia ’ " .

  Under the guidance of this principle, the CPC Central Committee has taken a series of major measures, and the Resolution is summarized as follows:

  — — Make a major decision to improve the central government’s exercise of comprehensive governance over the Special Administrative Region in accordance with the Constitution and the Basic Law, improve the relevant institutional mechanisms for the implementation of the Constitution and the Basic Law, promote the establishment and improvement of the legal system and implementation mechanism for safeguarding national security in the Special Administrative Region, formulate the Law of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) Special Administrative Region on Safeguarding National Security, improve the electoral system of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, implement the principle of "patriots ruling Hong Kong", and support the Special Administrative Region in improving the oath system for public officials.

  ——中央人民政府依法设立驻香港特别行政区维护国家安全公署,香港特别行政区依法设立维护国家安全委员会。

  ——中央坚定支持香港特别行政区依法止暴制乱、恢复秩序,支持行政长官和特别行政区政府依法施政,坚决防范和遏制外部势力干预港澳事务,严厉打击分裂、颠覆、渗透、破坏活动。

  ——全面支持香港、澳门更好融入国家发展大局,高质量建设粤港澳大湾区,支持港澳发展经济、改善民生,增强港澳同胞国家意识和爱国精神。

  这一系列标本兼治的举措,推动香港局势实现由乱到治的重大转折,为推进依法治港治澳、促进“一国两制”实践行稳致远打下了坚实基础。

  (三)“全体中华儿女的共同愿望”

  Resolving the Taiwan Province question and realizing the complete reunification of the motherland is the historical task of the Party, the common aspiration of all Chinese people and the inevitable requirement for realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has put forward a series of important ideas and major policy propositions on Taiwan’s work, forming the overall strategy for the Party to solve the Taiwan Province issue in the new era.

  We have promoted the first meeting between leaders of the two sides of the strait since 1949 and direct dialogue and communication between leaders of the two sides. Adhering to the concept of "one family on both sides of the strait", the Party has promoted the peaceful development of cross-strait relations, promulgated a series of policies that benefit Taiwan compatriots, and strengthened cross-strait economic and cultural exchanges and cooperation.

  Since 2016, the Taiwan Province authorities have stepped up their separatist activities in Taiwan independence, which has seriously impacted the momentum of peaceful development of cross-strait relations. We adhere to the one-China principle and the "1992 Consensus", resolutely oppose the "Taiwan independence" separatist acts, resolutely oppose the interference of external forces, and firmly grasp the dominance and initiative of cross-strait relations.

  The "Resolution" firmly and confidently points out: "The time and potential for the complete reunification of the motherland are always on our side"; "With the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC), the strong support of the great motherland, and the concerted efforts of people of all ethnic groups in China, including compatriots in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the Macao Special Administrative Region and Taiwan Province, the long-term prosperity and stability of Hong Kong and Macao will certainly be maintained, and the complete reunification of the motherland will certainly be realized"!
