China urges American politicians to remove "black hand" from Hong Kong, the spokesperson of the Commissioner's Office of China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Hong Kong said Friday in a statement.

The statement accuses the U.S. Congressional-Executive Commission on China of "completely distorting the truth" after it issued a statement on the fifth anniversary of the "Occupy Central" movement while "turning a blind eye to the mainstream public opinion in Hong Kong."

"It is an outright interference in China's internal affairs and a despicable clumsy show. The Chinese side deplores and firmly opposes it," said the statement.

According to the statement, the problem facing Hong Kong is "in no way about human rights or democracy."

Rioters committed arbitrary vandalism and violently assaulted the police and innocent people. Their behavior defied the rule of law, profaned democracy and infringed upon the democratic rights of the majority of Hong Kong residents, said the statement.

The statement said that some U.S. congressmen ignored the SAR government's active efforts in restoring order and Hong Kong residents' strong aspiration to stop violence and end the chaos.

"Their true aim is to meddle with Hong Kong affairs and ultimately mess up Hong Kong and topple 'One Country, Two Systems,'" the statement pointed out.

Hong Kong has enjoyed a high degree of autonomy since its return to the motherland, it stressed, adding that the policies of "One Country, Two Systems" and "the people of Hong Kong governing Hong Kong" have been fully implemented.

"Hong Kong is part of China, and its affairs are completely China's internal affairs. We are rock-firm in defending national sovereignty, security and development interests. We again urge the individual American politicians to stop going further down the wrong path and immediately remove their 'black hand' from Hong Kong."
