This is the hong kong the Chinese Government wanted the world to see celebrations marking the 22nd anniversary of its return to the chinese motherland instead piece with the scenes broadcast around the world dismissed by beijing as little more than violent mobs pushing but it says is a blatant challenge to the one country 2 systems rule its strongest words yet very sentimental euthanizing of what happened in hong kong violently striking in the last minute damaging facilities is an act of law and violating social order is a serious to law breaking behavior. The communist party has condemned the storming of hong kongs Legislative Council and its full support behind chief executive kerry land government its backing a Police Investigation into the criminal responsibility of those involved on monday night saying offenders who feel the full force of the law. The Chinese Government are continuing to play down the takeover of hong kongs column and calling it the illegal behavior of a group of radicals but the intensity of the protests have no doubt time is leadership and pundits and questions as to why so many who are resisting they jews control they see or perceive that somehow beijing is overreaching that its violating what they perceive as the spirit of the agreement that was in the handover from beijings point of view theyre protecting their people and their country for now from Chinese State media familia party line continuing to protest will only undermine social order and harm hong kong. Beijing is watching closely waiting to see of Hong Kong Government is able to stamp out the unrest if not it may bring with these protesters fear the more stuff more controlled from the mainland chinese you aljazeera beijing Andrew Thomas is in hong kong for us so andrew its about 24 hours since those dramatic scenes started to take place whats going on now. Well youre absolutely right it was exactly 24 hours ago that the place moved in from all directions on the protesters who had surrounded this building the Legislative Council right in the heart of hong kong with the protesters that had essentially under siege for all of monday and then about 9 oclock at night hong kong time so if you like 2 hours ago yesterday they smashed their way into that building and really had overrun it and done an awful lot of damage as weve seen in the footage and i saw myself when i went in there off the place cleared it late last night so choose day as all been about clearing up clearing up the debris that surrounded this building and clearing up inside at the same time the place all day started an investigation theyve been taking out probably loads of evidence as theyre calling it from that building things that the protesters took in with them but also things that the protesters damaged once they were in there and they got site that away and will use it in any future prosecutions of people who broke into that building or were violent around the building during monday so this is now a crime scene the parliament essentially of hong kong sealed off with tape like this and its a crime scene that carry lamb has said will be fully investigated and she is the chief executive of hong kong and she said that they will prosecute those bottom protesters who went in there now she was very clear in her Early Morning press conference on tuesday to make a distinction between the half 1000000 people who marched in the streets of hong kong he slowly and the 30000 or so who surrounded this building and hundreds perhaps even a 1000 or more who went into that building and caused so much damage the protesters well for them its all about where they go from here because they havent achieved their aims caroline has not taken those controversial extradition proposals completely off the table shes maintained they are suspended but not formally cancelled she hasnt resigned and they havent got an amnesty for people arrested in previous protests either so its a question for the protesters really where do they go from here and where does that country go from here. Well hong kong is this funny place at the moment halfway through this transition from British Colonial rule to chinese rule formally off the 50 years china guaranteed hong kong independence 50 years effectively of the handover on the 1st of july 1907 and were halfway through almost that period now where do the protesters go from here well i was talking to some of them a couple of hours ago and to be honest their mood is fairly despondent they are as frustrated as anyone but the violence happened in the way that it did in that building late last night and that goes even with some who were in that building may have taken part in some of the violence they say its explicable in the sense that they had tried every form of peaceful protest they believe getting 2000000 people out on the streets for a march here in june petitioning the legislators in there getting the attention of the worlds media and yet none of it was achieving their aims pacifically on these extradition laws but more broadly for democratic reforms here in hong kong and they felt that they needed to do something dramatic to get more attention to make something shift they came prepared for violence they say because they expect that from the police thats why they carried helmets thats why they carried gas masks and dissipating tear gas but i think of the 12 in some cases more hours 15 hours some protesters sat outside this building waiting with a real growing sense of tension during the day some of them just couldnt contain themselves anymore and when they got into that building and the police didnt stop them they smashed their way in some of them just went frankly a little bit crazy in there and the damage that was done in that building will not help their cause ive spoken to lots of people in hong kong over the course of tuesday and they have told me that while they did support the aims of the peaceful marches and many many of them took part in those marches they are almost universal in their condemnation of what the protesters did in that building criminal down. And really they werent even doing it when the police were coming in the damage was done before that so for the protesters where do they go from here talking about future marches but they also say they need arrests because its been a long few weeks here in hong kong and yesterday was definitely a climax but perhaps not one thats taken that cools any further to completion thomas live for us in Hong Kong Andrew thank you martin lee is the founding chairman of the Democratic Party of hong kong he is suspicious as to why the police didnt do more to stop the protesters from entering the government building why were they allowed to go into the building to begin with and we do since you have been watching. There were 3 or 4 guys actually doing damage to. Us dog for those who are in the us i and students who are. Or taking no follow through 4 hours before they finally broke the door and where were the police who were exactly her in the glass door fully armed and just waited. And when they finally. Go they didnt and there was another. And the police get behind another all the computer. Even. When the world would you have seen that you know the police were actually there and another good test is to spend so much time just a few of them to bring over the door but the Police Actually set a trap for what they did what they did or what they didnt hurt anybody i mean that thats a good nobody because they didnt want to hurt anybody and the police a lot of them and i will be people were detained. And their religion challenges the one country 2 systems who committed the. Big income a phone call. Universal suffrage that. Region promise that they would not interfere in hong kong is they care or. They have been making these regions who was watching me. Frances president is calling on iran to immediately reduce its enriched uranium reserves they went Nuclear Watchdog confirmed tehran is stockpiling more enriched uranium nets and its allowed under the 2015 Nuclear Deal Iran a parliamentary speaker says u. S. Pressure is only making the country stronger or should it. Americas problem is that they dont know the middle east and the iranian nation and they think if they deploy some low ships to the region they can suppress the determination of a nation but iranians have shown they have unified will trump should realize that a civilized nation will get more united when they believe if they understand that many problems will be solved the understanding it needs wisdom. To talk about what joins us now from paris and how should these comments from memory put them into a sort of context for us. Yes the lease a put out a statement earlier on tuesday in which the french president tomorrow michael said he was very concerned about the fact that iran had decided to exceed its uranium limits he is calling on tehran to reverse a decision and also not to take any more of the steps which would mean that iran was not complying with the 2015 iran deal the j c p a way now his comments were very much echoed on monday by the British Foreign minister jeremy hunt who also said pretty much the same that britain is very worried about the situation and he underlined the fact though the european powers are still quite adamant that they want to maintain this deal they still see it as the best deal that there is out there for Regional Security and peace but the focus clearly for european powers for britain france and germany who also in the 2015 deal they will focus is on trying to make sure that iran doesnt carry out any more steps that could be seen as violating the 2015 accord because they do not want that deal to collapse it would be a huge diplomatic failure for them but also they see it as potentially very dangerous of course if iran was able to build a nuclear weapon.
