That china is imposing a new security law on hong kong 23 years after it took back control and promised a one country 2 systems policy its been signed by chinese president xi jinping and is now in force critics say the legislation erodes hong kongs freedoms adrian brown reports. It normally takes a year for Chinas Parliament to pass legislation this time it happened in record time just 40 days the new security law completed its passage after a vote by the countrys most powerful political body the Standing Committee of the National Peoples congress in Hong Kong China supporters were also celebrating before the news that even being confirmed. A contentious measure that spits it he divided the city was once more defended by its chief executive the legislation oppose imposing legal principles such as presumption of innocence and protection of the rights of the sox that it will have no race respectively fact the critics here say the new law now threatens to stifle even small displays of dissent like this one in a local Shopping Mall on tuesday china is just causing passing a law without without even asking of. Police and not going to the proper procedures the laws passing had an immediate political impact democracy activist joshua wang announced he was resigning from the Political Party he helped found before the party itself was dissolved also desponding 2 other smaller political groups that advocated independence. For hong kong this is the most Dramatic Development since its return from british to chinese rule since then chinas had thousands of troops garrisoned in the city now its secret agents will be able to legally operate here as well a body to gather intelligence will also be set up the timing of this new law is no coincidence wednesday marks the 23rd anniversary of home kongs handover from britain to china police have sealed off the area around a Convention Center where locals and mainland dignitaries commemorate the event each year before the handover china promised that hong kongs freedoms including an independent legal system would continue for 50 more years to many people here now it seems that promise has been broken july the 1st is traditionally a symbolic day marked by a large march but police have denied an application for another this year citing the coronavirus and the potential for violence several groups though are vowing to test the ban adrian brown al jazeera hong kong. Well lets take a closer look at some of the Main Elements of this legislation china will set up a National Security agency in hong kong it will not be supervised by the local government and that agency will have jurisdiction over what the law describes as serious cases trials involving National Security secrets can now be conducted behind closed doors maximum sentence there is life in prison and the local government will also set up a National Security committee chaired by the chief executive and decisions made by that body cannot be challenged in local courts formosan leigh is the founding chairman of the united democrats which then became the Democratic Party of hong kong he was also the face of the Democracy Movement before the handover back in 1907 he explains how hong kongs power is being eroded. My party will stay on and i will stay in hong kong of course we realize that the prospects of our being put into prison would be very high with the passage of this law but what is really frustrating is that even though b. No this law will be operative tomorrow none of us have seen a copy of it so we dont know what sort of offenses we might be committing tomorrow i mean this is ridiculous but im not too concerned about the actual contents of it because i expect them to be very good code in and and reasonable but the real impact on is much further it is much more serious than that what this piece of legislation in fact for me means. Is that when the British Government returned hong kong to the peoples republic of china 23 years ago it was on the promise of dumb show pink the then paramount head of china that hong kong will be run by hong kong people with a high degree of autonomy which means that apart from defense and Foreign Affairs we the people of hong kong will be masters of our own house in terms of the executive power educated power and judicial power now but a person who does not everything is. Instead of hong kong people born in hong kong is now the communist party bordering on instead of being enjoy a high degree of autonomy now the communist party will be ruling with comprehensive power control now this is what this war is all about that they are now actually defining the new position. Which is just another chinese city we have no degree a country and all that is this is a problem. They have complete control even our courts this is what we would do not read every case but this code at the ready to do some small number of cases china. Now Donald Trumps relationship with vladimir prison is again being scrutinized after russia denied to making bounty payments to taliban fighters in afghanistan to kill u. S. Soldiers the u. S. Director of National Intelligence says the allegations are still being investigated and President Trump says he wasnt told of the intelligence reports because they went deemed to be credible all democrats in the u. S. Say that despite a briefing from the white house on tuesday they still havent gotten the information they need on russias alleged bounties on the soldiers in afghanistan theyre calling for a full briefing from the Intelligence Community the president called this a hoax publicly nothing in the briefing that we have just received led me to believe it is a hoax there may be 2 different judgments as to the level of credibility but there was no assertion that the information we had was a hoax well the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee says that even if the information comes with cabinets attached it should still be a major factor in the president s dealings with russia as we look at these allegations. Number one the president i state should not be inviting russia into the g 7 or g 8. We should be considering what sanctions are appropriate to further deter russias malign activities not further ingratiating russia into the community of civilized nations well our White House Correspondent can be how it has more from washington d. C. The perspective of democrats is that they didnt get the briefing from the people they wanted the briefing they got a white house perspective they already know that perspective they wanted to hear from the intelligence officials and so theyve there are sort of requests that this come from this information come from the director of National Intelligence and also the director of the cia jeanne the house bill they also are concerned that the u. S. President has once again in their view socially put forward his infatuation with lattimer putin someone they believe should be held to account and so you heard there from the house intelligence chair adam schiff stating that he believes its time for sanctions against russia the russians should not be invited to the g. 7 to make it the g. 8 or in other words be part of the community of civilized nations the white house has repeatedly said that the president did not know anything about this that he had not been briefed but we do know that 2 anonymous intelligence officials have come forward stating in fact just the opposite saying that they briefed the president back is early as february of this year and in fact this was further developed in an intelligence briefing that was given to the president and then disseminated more widely to the broader Intelligence Community so these are revelations that are increasingly not sitting well with not just members of the house of representatives on the democratic side but also we know some members of the republican side as well that say they want more information and they want to hear from intel officials what the president knew and when.
