Taiwan's Foreign Minister says his country risks becoming the next Hong Kong as international leaders condemn Beijing's arrest of media figures and pro-democracy activists.
“Our life has become increasingly difficult as China continues to pressure Taiwan into accepting its political conditions, conditions that will turn Taiwan into the next Hong Kong,” he said. Two political activists including Agnes Chow, the co-founder of former opposition party Demosisto, were detained on Monday night along with Wilson Li, a freelance journalist with Britain’s ITN network. Lai's sons and four other Next Digital staff were also arrested.Hong Kong police said Chow and Li had been accused of “colluding with foreign elements” through their alleged involvement in a group that called for international sanctions on Hong Kong.

Australia needs Trump to win the election because 'we cannot face China alone' | Sky News AustraliaLiberal Senator James McGrath says Australia needs President Donald Trump to win the upcoming presidential election to help it stand up to China. \n\nMr McGrath said China was the “greatest threat to the rules-based order the world is seeing at the moment.”\n\nPresident Trump would be better at dealing with China than presidential candidate Joe Biden because he knows “when you deal with bullies … you don’t give them shoulder massages, you’ve got to stand up to them.” Mr McGrath told Sky news. \n\n“Biden isn’t a foreign affairs hawk, he’s like a foreign affairs budgerigar”\n\nMr McGrath said Australia needed to ensure there was a 'coalition of the willing” standing against China and required the help of a strong president in the White House. \n\nImage: Getty realDonaldTrump I agree. I’m not a fan of Trump. But Biden is a puppet of China when he was VP. He agrees with China and not intend to make China accountable and eventually national security will be at risk. JoeBiden realDonaldTrump lol. What a moron realDonaldTrump Why he would keep standing against C after the election?

China rejects ‘absurd’ and ‘ridiculous’ claims of foreign influence in US elections | Sky News AustraliaChina claims it has no interest in interfering in the US November elections and the mere suggestion of its foreign influence amounts to “absurd” and “ridiculous” logic.\n\nChina's Foreign Ministry said Beijing’s rising criticism of the US, which has recently included sniping over 5G, COVID-19, Hong Kong and the South China Sea, has not been an attempt to sway the outcome of the election in November but rather a “just” and necessary response to America’s interference in its internal affairs.\n\nChina’s defensive remarks came days after US National counter-intelligence and Security Centre Director William Evanina pointed the finger squarely at the Communist nation. \n\nIn an “overview of foreign threats to the 2020 election”, Mr Evanina highlighted Beijing's preference that “unpredictable” President Donald Trump loses the election. \n\nImage: AP\n\n hasn't stopped interfering in elections since it's inception. Nothing more than an editorial...no news value. 'Sky Editorial Australia,' there are, that's better. Take Down Chinese Communist Party! A LOT LESS 'absurd' and 'ridiculous'! you are a moron if you think another country can influence the election and people won't listen to you ..you better don't stand in an election if you have dark secrets.,..what are you scared off ?..idiots always want to blame the third party for losses.
