We are creating an anti-Putin coalition. I spoke with @vonderleyen, @EmmanuelMacron, @karlnehammer and @RTErdogan about concrete sanctions and concrete assistance for our military. We are waiting for decisive action.
Thank you to all of our friends in #Brazil for your kind congratulations, and I hope you are all staying safe & healthy. #VivaTaiwan 🇹🇼 #VivaBrazil 🇧🇷
The most terrible thing in this video is, the students of #PolyU are using their bodies to resist, throwing back the canisters in the tear gas rain.
Their president is absent and stay quiet, #HongKong gov’t officials do nothing but let the police kill ‘em
#HongKong police trapping hundreds of students inside #PolyUniversity. Won’t let them leave. Apparently want mass arrests. These actions by Beijing-backed govt raise question whether #China is in violation of its 1984 Joint Declaration commitments https://t.co/tc7akTgyZK
My Urgent Appeal: The World needs to stand with desperate HK protestors
1. It draws up some frustrating debate in Germany after a quote of interview with Süddeutsche Zeitung was misinterpreted. But I have clarify that it has nothing to do with my belief on non-violence activism.
>30 secondary school principals coming to rescue of >100 high-schoolers trapped inside HK Polytechnic University. Six allowed by #HKPolice to enter to assist students. Still no one allowed to leave. "You can go in but you can never leave"? Bloodsucking #HKPoliceState!
Inside Poly U now with a Reuters team. We’ll stay whatever happens. A sense of foreboding amid grave fears of a bloody showdown, hundreds of tenacious and desperate protesters trapped on all sides by police, some highly on edge #HK#HongKongProtests#StandWithHongKong
"TST now to save #PolyU kids" is not only a🇭🇰popular uprising rally cry, but also a demonstration of people power against Commissar Lam's tyranny, @hkpoliceforce human rights abuse & brutality, &🇨🇳fascism. God bless freedom loving🇭🇰ers. We will stand with you ALL to the end.
In #HongKong, government police continue their assault on universities into the night, making mass arrests and now threatening live fire against largely defenseless students. Beijing is pushing Hong Kong into a state of siege #StandWithHongKong https://t.co/88poKjgKt8
Just a taste of the violent arrests being made at #PolyU. Even with members of the press swarming around, excessive force is being used on protesters who are subdued and too tired to fight back.
