"Hong Kong has never been free." I thought hard for a line to describe #HongKong's plight to the audience of #GenevaSummit2023. Many ppl have mistaken Hong Kong as once a free society. But it has never been free under UK & Chinese rule. Let me explain w/ a snip of my speech: 🧵
🥊 In Ankara 🇹🇷, during the events of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Black Sea Economic Community, the representative of Russia 🇷🇺 tore the flag of Ukraine 🇺🇦 from the hands of a 🇺🇦 Member of Parliament.
The 🇺🇦 MP then punched the Russian in the face.
Absolute record. Worldwide
Lithuanians raise 1 006 000 euro for radars for Ukraine in 1 hour. Lithuanian IT company Tesonet doubles it for 2 012 000 euro.
In 1 hour.
Our nation stand with Ukraine until the very end. Until victory!
