Today is "National Security Education Day" 🇨🇳 in HK.
Kids given toy guns in "simulation environments" such as a fake train station platform at the police training school. These cops who terrorized Hong Kongers on 7.21.2019 are now idolized as role models for our next generation.
Une cinquantaine de figures de l'opposition pro-démocratie ont été arrêtées aujourd'hui à Hong Kong en vertu de la récente loi sur la sécurité nationale, dans le plus grand coup de filet mené à ce jour contre les détracteurs de Pékin au nom de ce texte drastique #AFP
The arrest of pro-democracy activists in #HongKong is unacceptable & absurd. People must be allowed to exercise their democratic rights.
The EU must not reward these continued repressions, but they must have clear consequences

One week since we signed the #CAI , and then you read this. What about our European values-based trade agenda? Promoting democracy or executing your freedom of speech or association are no crimes. This crackdown must stop. #HongKong

The sudden arrest of dozens of pro-democracy activists in Hong Kong is a clear sign of Beijing’s determination to rein in political opposition in the former British colony. https://t.co/AptqCutMAQ
The EU and UK should react together to the Chinese repressions in Hong Kong. Let us show that despite brexit, we are still a community when it comes to universal rights.
Very concerned about mass arrests of pro-democracy politicians and activists among other worrying developments in Hong Kong. The exercise of the human rights and freedoms guaranteed under Hong Kong’s Basic Law must be ensured.
