On the eve of the fifth anniversary of the implementation of the National Security Law in Hong Kong by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), a 19-year-old political party in Hong Kong, the League of Social Democrats (the League), held a press conference on June 29, saying it was “facing tremendous political pressure” and announcing its dissolution.

The League was the only remaining pro-democratic party in Hong Kong that was still active.
