中聯辦、港澳辦、駐港國安公署譴責制裁稱如「廢紙」 美國駐港領事：不容跨境鎮壓
The United States announced sanctions against six Hong Kong and mainland officials, including Secretary for Justice Paul Lam Ting-kwok and Dong Jingwei, director of the Office for Safeguarding National Security of the Central People’s Government in the HKSAR. The Liaison Office of the Central People’s Government in the HKSAR, the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office, and the Office for Safeguarding National Security of the Central People’s Government in the HKSAR strongly condemned the sanctions. The Liaison Office said the United States had exposed its sinister intention to disrupt Hong Kong and contain China, but was bound to achieve nothing, adding that the HKSAR was tackling acts endangering national security in accordance with the law.
The Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office said the sanctions were merely “another piece of waste paper”, stressing that financial events in Hong Kong over the past week had attracted investors from around the world and represented an international “vote of confidence” in Hong Kong. The national security office said the sanctions would only strengthen the resolve of the central and HKSAR governments to safeguard national security, describing them as “waste paper no matter how many sanctions are imposed” and saying they would not obstruct Hong Kong’s prosperity.
A group of Democratic Alliance for Betterment and Progress members, including Legislative Council members Holden Chow, Chan Wing-yan, Chan Hok-fung, Yim Man-wai and Lam Lam, protested outside the US Consulate General in Hong Kong and Macao. They condemned the US sanctions and opposed the US government’s interference in Hong Kong affairs and China’s internal affairs.
US Consul General in Hong Kong and Macao Gregory May said on social media that the mainland and Hong Kong governments were continuing to undermine the rule of law, adding that “the US will not tolerate transnational repression in the United States or targeting US citizens.”
美國宣布制裁6名香港及内地官員，包括律政司長林定國、中央駐港國安公署署長董經緯。中聯辦、港澳辦、中央駐港國安公署均強烈譴責制裁，中聯辦稱美國暴露其亂港遏華的險惡用心，但注定徒勞無功，表示特區依法打擊危害國安者。
港澳辦稱制裁不過「再多一張廢紙」，並強調過去一周香港的金融盛事吸引全球投資者，是國際對香港投下「信心票」。中央駐港國安公署表示，制裁只會堅定中央與特區維護國安的決心，形容「制裁再多仍是廢紙」，不會阻擋香港繁榮。
一批民建聯成員，包括立法會議員周浩鼎、陳勇、陳學鋒、顏汶羽及林琳等則到美國駐港澳總領事館示威，譴責美國政制裁，反對美國政府干涉香港事務和中國內政。
美國駐港澳總領事梅儒瑞則在社交媒體表示，内地及香港政府持續破壞法治，「美方不會容忍在美國本土或針對美國公民的跨國鎮壓（transnational repression）」。

加拿大大選｜自由黨親中議員蔣振宇籲帶鄭敬基到中領館領賞 13公民團體聯署促DQ 卡尼力撐已道歉毋須退選
Canada’s federal election will be held on April 28. Paul Chiang, the Liberal candidate seeking re-election in the Markham—Unionville riding, publicly said in January that a HK$1 million reward could be claimed by taking Conservative candidate Joseph Tay King Kei to the Chinese Consulate-General in Toronto. Chiang did not deny the remarks on the social media platform X last Friday (28th), and apologised directly: “The remarks I made are reprehensible. I completely underestimated the seriousness of the incident, demonstrating that my judgment at the time was seriously flawed. I sincerely apologise and deeply regret my remarks.” On Sunday (30th), 13 civic groups representing Canadians of Hong Kong descent issued a joint statement strongly condemning Chiang’s gaffe, saying they did not accept his hypocritical apology and urging Canadian Prime Minister and Liberal leader Mark Carney to immediately revoke his nomination. Carney responded the same day that Chiang had apologised, and made clear that he would stand alongside Chiang and Hong Kong people to defend their human rights and freedoms; there was no need for Chiang to withdraw from the federal election.
加拿大聯邦大選將於4月28日舉行，尋求連任的萬錦於人村選區（Markham—Unionville）的自由黨候選人蔣振宇（Paul Chiang）今年1月公開表明，只要將保守黨候選人鄭敬基帶到中國駐多倫多總領館就能取得100萬港元懸賞。蔣隨後在上周五（28日）於社交平台X並沒否認該番言論，並直接作出道歉：「我所發表的言論令人譴責，完全低估了事件的嚴重性，顯示我當時判斷力嚴重失誤，我誠懇道歉，並對自己的言論深感遺憾。」代表香港裔加拿大人的13個公民團體周日（30日）發表聯合聲明強烈譴責蔣的失言，強調不接受其虛偽道歉，並敦促加拿大總理、自由黨領袖卡尼（Mark Carney）立即撤銷其候選人提名。不過，卡尼同日發表回應，指蔣已經道歉，並明確表示將對方與香港人並肩站在一起捍衞他們的人權和自由，沒需要退出聯邦大選。

匿名信寄澳洲懸紅百萬舉報任建峰 中方：自導自演鬧劇
Members of the public in Melbourne, Australia, received anonymous letters offering a HK$1 million reward for information on Kevin Yam, the former convenor of the Progressive Lawyers Group who is wanted by Hong Kong’s national security police. Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong directly sought information about the incident from Chinese and Hong Kong officials and expressed concern. China, however, accused “anti-China, anti-Hong Kong elements” of staging a farce.
The Office of the Commissioner of the Chinese Foreign Ministry in Hong Kong said on Wednesday (19th) that certain Australian politicians had expressed concern over so-called “Hong Kong police law enforcement operations in Australia”, openly backing and encouraging “anti-China, anti-Hong Kong elements” while framing and smearing the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government. Its spokesperson said the incident was merely a farce scripted and staged by “anti-China, anti-Hong Kong elements”, while Australia had made an issue of it and used the opportunity to interfere in Hong Kong’s rule of law and China’s internal affairs. “We express our strong dissatisfaction and firm opposition.”
The spokesperson said that Kevin Yam, Ted Hui and others are permanent residents of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. They incited secession, subversion of state power and collusion with external forces, and are leading “anti-China, anti-Hong Kong” offenders who fled abroad. They must face legal pursuit and punishment.

中國外交部駐港公署周三（19日）表示，針對澳洲個別政客對所謂「香港警方在澳開展執法行動」表達關切，公然為「反中亂港分子」撐腰打氣，栽贓抹黑香港特區政府，公署發言人指有關事件不過是「反中亂港分子」自編自導的鬧劇，澳方卻以此大做文章，借機干涉香港法治和中國內政，「我們對此表示強烈不滿和堅決反對。」
發言人謂，任建峰、許智峰等是香港特區永久居民，他們煽動分裂國家、顛覆國家政權及勾結外部勢力，是外逃「反中亂港」首惡分子，必須受到法律追究和懲罰。

「23條」後香港監控加劇 赴湯透露於FB稱友人「大佬」對方收國安電話
On the first anniversary of the passage of Article 23 of the Hong Kong Basic Law, Hong Kong people in Taiwan and several Taiwanese human rights organisations held a press conference on Wednesday (19th) to express support for Hong Kong political prisoners and call on the international community to join forces against authoritarianism. Fu Tong said that about six months ago, a friend posted comments unrelated to politics on Facebook. Fu Tong left a comment addressing the friend by his nickname, “Big Brother”; two days later, the friend received a call from national security authorities. He described the surveillance as “beyond imagination.”
Under the slogans “Oppose Hong Kong’s draconian national security law, support Hong Kong political prisoners, and reject China’s cross-border repression” and “Article 23 of the Hong Kong Basic Law,” the press conference was held after many people were arrested in the year since the law’s passage.
Hong Kong’s Security Bureau has consistently refused to disclose figures broken down by offence for arrests under Article 23, citing the sensitivity of the offences and concerns that disclosure could endanger national security activities and affect operational deployments. However, the latest investigation released by Amnesty International on Wednesday (19th) showed that at least 16 people had so far been arrested in connection with alleged violations of Article 23. Five had been formally charged, while three had been convicted and sentenced to between 10 and 14 months in prison.

「反對香港國安惡法，聲援香港政治犯，拒絕中國跨境鎮壓」，香港《基本法》23條
通過1周年多人被捕，在台港人與多個台灣人權組織周三（19日）召開記者會聲援香港政治犯。
香港保安局一直以「罪行涉敏感危害國安活動、影響行動部署」為由，拒公布23條拘捕罪名分類數字。但國際特赦組織於周三（19日）發佈的最新調查顯示，至今至少16人因涉違反「23條」被捕，當中5人被正式起訴，3人則被判有罪，被判囚10至14個月不等。

特朗普政府凍結資助《自由亞洲電台》及《美國之音》等傳媒機構
The Trump administration ordered on Saturday (March 15) the suspension of funding for several broadcasting organisations, including Voice of America (VOA), Radio Free Asia (RFA) and Radio Free Europe (RFE). Employees of the organisations told the BBC they had “long expected” the move.
Hundreds of staff members at Voice of America, Radio Free Asia, Radio Free Europe and other broadcasters received company emails over the weekend saying they were barred from entering their offices and had to surrender press passes and equipment issued by their offices. The organisations’ operations were brought to a halt.
According to an email viewed by BBC Chinese and sent by RFA president Fong Pui to staff on Saturday U.S. Eastern Time, all RFA employees were expected to report to work as normal on the next working day, the coming Monday.
“Last night, the White House issued an executive order affecting multiple organisations, including the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM). Please note that we are all working together to assess how the executive order will affect RFA. This morning, RFA and other sister media organisations received notification from USAGM stating that our grant agreements had been suspended. RFA’s leadership is assessing this disappointing development to determine what it means and its potential impact on our organisation.”
特朗普政府週六（3月15日）下令暫停資助包括美國之音（VOA）、自由亞洲電台（RFA）、自由歐洲電台（RFE）在內的多家廣播機構，有這些機構的員工向BBC表示他們「早有預期」。
數百名美國之音、自由亞洲電台、自由歐洲電台等廣播電台工作人員在週末時收到公司電郵稱他們被禁止進入辦公室，且必須上交記者證、辦公室發放的設備等，公司進入停擺。
根據一封BBC中文瀏覽過的、由RFA台長方貝在美國東部時間週六發給員工的郵件，該機構全體員工在下一個工作日，也就是即將到來的星期一，應該正常到崗上班。
「昨晚，白宮發出波及包括美國全球媒體總署（USAGM）在內的多個機構的行政令。請注意我們都在協作處理這項行政令將如何影響RFA。今晨，RFA和其他姊妹媒體都收到來自USAGM的通知，表示中止我們的補助協議。RFA的領導層正在評估這一令人沮喪的進程，以確定這究竟意味著什麼，以及它對我們機構的潛在影響。」
