최근 한국에서 제가 윤상현 국회의원에게 만남을 요청했다는 보도와 제가 윤상현 국회의원에게 감사에 뜻을 전했다는 보도가 나오고 있습니다. 저는 윤상현 의원과 연락을 한적도 받은적도 없습니다. 가짜뉴스입니다.

A change of U.S. policy on #HongKong will certainly have an impact on #China, as @WSJ explains: "Hong Kong remains a key financial gateway between mainland China, which maintains strict capital controls, and the wider world." wsj.com/articles/china…

The number of global political figures who've signed this letter, initiated by Lord Chris Patten and Sir Malcolm Rifkind, just keeps growing. Very impressive. Thank you for all this support for #HongKong from around the world! twitter.com/hk_watch/statu…

[Joshua Wong: We want to prevent HK from becoming the next Tiananmen]
“We are calling on world leaders to oppose the implementation of such evil regulation,” he said, adding that he wants to prevent ‘another Tiananmen massacre 31 years later.”

“In 2019, two out of seven million citizens took to the streets and urged the government to withdraw one of the controversial extradition bills, and now Beijing is trying to impose this national security law which is far more evil - and it even bypassed the HK legislature”

“China has replaced its promised formula of ‘One Country, Two Systems’ with ‘One Country, One System.’” This is not only the perspective of HKers, which is also a general understanding of the global community.

4/ This is a matter of time when China extends its Great Firewall and censorship apparatus to HK, and censors social media platforms like Facebook, Whatsapp and Twitter. It harms not only freedom of speech, but also free flow of information & all business interests relying on it.

3/ Under the new law, the #secretpolice agency is just the first step for more China’s direct control. As Section 4 of the law reads “Central government can base on needs to set up institutions in HK to uphold #nationalsecurity.”
1471
2/ In fact, #nationalsecuritylaw will affect all netizens since #China has a long history of regarding critical voices on social media as a threat to its national security. It has imposed the most restrictive cybersecurity rules & clamped down on the flow of information in China.

1/ Mark Zuckerberg said that he hopes Facebook will "find a way" to keep offering its services in HK after @SecPompeo declared that HK was "no longer autonomous" from China. It implied the risk of great firewall adopts from Mainland China to HK.

8/ Once #secretpolice agency is imposed, & once the ill-defined law is enforced, it will only spark more public outcry. To protect HK prosperity that all European companies now enjoy, Germany as influential leaders in EU, needs to take actions instead of only expressing concerns.

[Germany & EU members need to take stronger actions to ward off the evil law]
1/ Thank @HeikoMaas for standing with HK & protecting the city’s liberties & business interest.
