Outragous, totally and utterly unjust, and horrific.
It is now time - long, long overdue - for the free world to act, to sanction #HongKong and Beijing #CCP tyrants
Police charge almost 50 under National Security Law https://t.co/lHSigjPZGV
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
Have deleted tweet about @BorisJohnson statement on HK. Might still be happening but clearly confusion between @Number10press and the lobby. Sorry to have raised expectations - was acting on reliable intel.
The U.S. is sanctioning the senior leadership of China’s National People’s Congress in connection with developing, adopting, and implementing the National Security Law. We will hold Beijing accountable for destroying Hong Kong’s autonomy. #StandWithHongKong#FightForFreedom

Today we are taking action against four Chinese and Hong Kong-based officials in connection with policies and actions that have undermined Hong Kong’s autonomy, eroded the rule of law, and stifled dissent through politically motivated arrests. #StandWithHongKong
.@SecPompeo on Hong Kong: The whole world can see that the Chinese Communist Party doesn’t speak the truth, right? It made this promise to the people of Hong Kong that they would have 50 years where they would operate under a system that was different... Instead, they lied.
Joshua Wong is asking the world to pay close attention to China’s detention & mistreatment of 12 Hong Kongers captured while fleeing to Taiwan. His account of unacceptable intimidation and harassment helps explain why the people of #HongKong fear Beijing’s tightening grip.
