Charges against 47 pro-democrat is of great concern to #EU. These make clear that legitimate political pluralism will no longer be tolerated in #HongKong. We urge authorities to abide by their commitments to fundamental #freedoms and the rule of law, as per the #BL and #ICCPR
Together with @SecPompeo 🇺🇸, @MarisePayne 🇦🇺 & @FP_Champagne 🇨🇦, 🇬🇧 makes clear that mass arrests under National Security Law are designed to crush dissent in Hong Kong, not restore order. China must keep its word & respect rights & freedoms of HK people https://t.co/FpU29Dq3Ke
.@benedictrogers continues: "Statements of condemnation from the UK Government and likeminded democracies will no longer cut it. Now is the time for coordinated action, including coordinated sanctions...”

#BREAKING Police also raided Joshua’s home for allegedly violating the national security law this morning as he took part in the primary election last year. 50+ democratic activists were arrested.
Ten of the #12HKyouths arrested by China will face a secret trial TMR. None of their relatives can sit in hearings and only wait for the verdict in HK.
We don’t know if the CCP will announce the verdict TMR, but we hope everybody can put emphasis on this case TMR at HKT2:30pm.
The Hong Kong 12 had no bail, no choice of lawyer, and no access to family. This is a stark preview of the future of justice in a Hong Kong stripped of its protections under an authoritarian “One Country, One System” framework. #FightForFreedom#HK12

People should not be afraid of their governments.
Only governments should be afraid of their people.
