BERLIN - A meeting between Germany’s foreign minister and Hong Kong activist Joshua Wong will damage its relations with China, Beijing’s ambassador to Berlin said on Wednesday, in an unusually direct verbal attack on an important trade partner.
At a time when Hong Kong is being rocked by protests, pro-democracy activist Wong arrived in Berlin on Monday night and German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas received him. The unrest, at times violent, in Hong Kong over the last few months was prompted by anger over planned legislation to allow extraditions to China, but has widened into calls for democracy and for Communist rulers in Beijing to leave the city alone.
“We don’t know what goal these politicians have. Are they actually seriously concerned about Hong Kong’s freedom, democracy and rule of law or they want to add fuel to the fire and thereby make political capital out of it?”The dispute between Germany and China comes days after Chancellor Angela Merkel returned from a trip there. She said earlier she had told Chinese leaders that upholding human rights was indispensable.“We have a very good and long tradition of cooperation.
The protesters are the unreasonable ones:
Where's your helmet goggles mask shoulder pads teammates?
Good for the Germans.
And hurt innocent citizens
This organization is trying destroy HK
this is the activity he lead
黃之鋒等一仟人一起接受暴亂培訓 更曾在2014年的黃色雨傘運動中被捕,主要煽動者及指揮者 香港政府及很多人都低估了今天的示威者, 大家都以為他們是一群有學識的大學生, 只是一與政府政見不同而已, 該組個平台來心平氣靜來解決分岐. 更有不少人說他們是'和理非' , 因為政府所迫才走出來向政府抗爭等!
I thought Hong Kong got no freedom, but still can travel overseas and meet anybody. Is he fighting for a private plane?
The world need to hear both side of stories. I wonder whether they try to talk to official of HK government, German company based in HK, businessman, normal folks to hear their side of story before they go on the bandwagons critizing and denouncing HK.
Nice couple picture.
Did Mass pay all the fee for the HKer? 🤔It looks like they are closer.
China has nothing to worry about. When push comes to shove, Germany will swiftly choose trades and business with China over any dissent between differing groups of Chinese
Es un terrorista, un político honrado no se reúne con un terrorista como el Joshua.
But Russia is meddling for sure everywhere...The actual West is even a more circus than during the Cold War era🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
China is desperate to undermine the legitimacy of the legitimate and peaceful HongKongProtests. XiJinping is a moron who is leading his people to ruin. StandWithHongKong Germany!
Come on guys he is just checking if it really feels like cold war Berlin

Hong Kong Is Unique—China Needs It to Stay That WayHong Kong’s “one country, two systems” has always been viewed with deep ambivalence in the ultra-capitalist city and Beijing alike, but maintaining the arrangement is paramount to the success of both. AaronBack The economists have spoken People's freedom and democracy are not as important. AaronBack Americans need to pay attention to what happens here. I am surprised MSM is allowed there to report on it. You don’t see any Media on how many are suffering in Saigon or Red China!! That’s because the only media is what the GVT says and if you protest they throw you in Jail! AaronBack HongKong is irreplaceable also because of its culture and people. Just look at the innovative idea that keep coming out to stand against tyranny. I hope we can secure our values against the pressure from Beijing.

U.S. must challenge China over Hong Kong, James Mattis says: 'We have to stand with them'Tens of thousands of protesters descended on the U.S. consulate in Hong Kong on Sunday, calling on the Trump administration to lend more support. The British gave control of Hong Kong back to China and that is that its their problem not ours we are not the worlds police. How? They are part of Communist China. It's not like we can arm them like we do Taiwan. They want what we got. They don't want a caravan like all the spineless loosers we have streaming into this country. Before I would get fuked out of MY country I would fight too. I feel sorry for the police there too.
