Hong Kong’s freedoms have come under “increasing pressure” from the Chinese regime since the National Security Law came into effect, the UK government said in its latest report on the former British colony.
In the “Six-monthly report on Hong Kong” published on Dec. 14, the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) said: “Freedom of speech, freedom of expression, and freedom of the press came under increasing pressure” following the imposition of the National Security Law in June 2020.
