Emily Lau: Hong Kong Dealt ‘Fatal Blow’ by Communist China’s National Security Law

How will the national security law being pushed by Beijing impact Hong Kong rule of law and its role as a major financial center? Does Great Britain have a special responsibility to help the people of Hong Kong? And how can the international community effectively put pressure on the Chinese Communist Party to change its course? In this episode, we sit down with Hong Kong’s “Iron Lady” Emily Lau, the former chairperson of Hong Kong’s Democratic Party. She was the first woman directly elected to Hong Kong’s Legislative Council in 1991, and she also sits on the board of directors of the China Human Rights Lawyers Concern Group. This is American Thought Leaders 🇺🇸, and I’m Jan Jekielek.
