Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam has called protesters involved in a citywide strike “rioters” who are “selfish” following international calls for “sincere dialogue” after violence erupted across the city yesterday.
In her weekly press conference on Nov. 12, Lam said the citywide strike called by “extreme netizens,” who obstructed roads and brought public transportation to a crawl, was intended to “paralyze” the city, adding that their actions were “extremely selfish.”
