China's disregard for the will of Hong Kong’s people proves that “one country, two systems” is not viable. Many things have changed in #HongKong since 1997, but #Taiwan’s commitment to supporting those #HKers who want freedom & democracy has never changed. #StandWithHongKong
The Sino-British Joint Decl gives Britain a unique role in guaranteeing Hong Kong’s freedoms since its handover to China in 1997. Abdicating this responsibility now would be a historic mistake & a real betrayal of our promises to the people of Hong Kong https://t.co/DVWoevZGOY
"Hong Kong is dead."
Thousands of people are protesting China's proposed new security laws in Hong Kong, which have been widely interpreted as an effort to take greater control of the territory.
Anti-government protesters set up roadblocks under umbrellas during a march against Beijing's plans to impose national security legislation in Hong Kong. More photos of the day: https://t.co/tCRecr6NRt 📷 Tyrone Siu
#HongKongers have given so much to defend their freedoms, yes because these freedoms were promised in the Sino-British Joint Declaration, but also because these freedoms accord deeply with China’s own history, culture & values. #cdnpoli#StandWithHongKong
I can’t express clearly enough my disgust for the way China handles the situation in Hong Kong. Maybe China can close down HK with military force. But you can’t kill the idea of a democratic society in our hearts. #StandWithHongKong#FiveDemandsNotOneLess https://t.co/vAz9frC4R1
Under cover of #coronavirus, authoritarian regimes are taking actions that will be difficult to reverse, especially in upcoming global #economic crisis. #China’s action in regard to #HongKong must be resisted.Treaty lodged at #UN guarantees #HongKong rights - must not be broken.
It is important that political leaders from across the democratic world #StandWithHongKong and oppose attempts to subvert Hong Kong’s autonomy, rule of law, fundamental freedoms, as well as international agreements
China’s government has finally shown it’s true colors by wiping out their promise of “One China-Two Systems” with #HongKong through the imposition of “national security legislation” that is really an attempt to squash this bastion of liberty. https://t.co/fAFikbnLGG
