BEIJING: The top decision-making body of China’s parliament will review a draft of national security legislation for Hong Kong during a session in Beijing that began on Thursday, the official Xinhua news agency reported.
Authorities in Beijing and Hong Kong have dismissed fears the law will curb freedoms and say it will only target a minority of “troublemakers” who pose a threat to national security. Pompeo met China’s top diplomat, Yang Jiechi, in Hawaii on Wednesday amid a deep deterioration of ties between the strategic rivals, their first face-to-face meeting since last year.
Pompeo stressed “the need for fully-reciprocal dealings between the two nations across commercial, security, and diplomatic interactions”, US State Department spokeswoman Morgan Ortagus said in a statement.
