WASHINGTON - A U.S. State Department spokeswoman on Thursday called China a “thuggish regime” for disclosing personal details and a photograph of a U.S. diplomat who met with leaders of Hong Kong’s pro-democracy movement. “I don’t think that leaking an American diplomat’s private information, pictures, names of their children, I don’t think that is a formal protest, that is what a thuggish regime would do,” spokeswoman Morgan Ortagus told a news briefing. “That is not how a responsible nation would behave.”

She never answered the question because she would have incremental herself. Of course the US is interfering 😆😊😂
Ask Cuba, Iran and Venezuela who they think qualifies as a “thuggish regime”.
IDK man, I think the news here is THAT meeting
'This is not only what American diplomats do. This is what other countries’ diplomats do,' Which country just invades, blockades, and starve other countries?
They are communists..duh
China is a 'thuggish regime', no doubt about it.
US, with its 200+ military bases around the world occupying multiple sovereign countries at once, calling another nation 'thuggish'... 🤣
I think the US government is projecting again. Thuggish regimes try to starve whole nations into submission. Thuggish regimes try to destroy those that they cannot subjugate. The number 1 thug is in the White House.
Guys people want more while leaders cry ringfenced rights, for people realistically living medieval lives
Are the Chinese deflecting or are they creating a reason to send troops to HongKong: Oh, look at the big bad Americans corrupting Hong Kong people! Let's send our troops!

China warns Hong Kong facing biggest crisis since handoverA Chinese official says the central government is considering what measures to take next as weeks of demonstrations have led to the “most severe situation” faced by Hong Kong since its handover from British rule in 1997. I'm glad this is in China, I was expecting this tweet thread to claim this cop was giving a 'salute' to white supremacy. This is not going to end well. You could protest in British controlled Hong Kong. Chinese controlled Hong Kong is going to be much different. But, you knew this. It was obvious and you had plenty of time to get the f*** out. You won't change China. Promise.

Hong Kong facing worst crisis since handover: senior China officialHong Kong is facing its worst crisis since it returned from British to Chinese r... How HK'terrorists destroyed the city in 24 hours. Sad to see these protests which I am 100% certain will not end well for Hong Kong & HKer's. beijing will not tolerate the protests much longer, fearing it will spread to the mainland & will ultimately crack down violently on these well-intended people. I do fear for their safety. Fake News has contributed greatly to the anger and rage that has built up over many years. News coverage has got to start being fair, balanced and unbiased, or these terrible problems will only get worse!----trump!

China Warns Hong Kong It Will Intervene if Situation DeterioratesA senior Chinese official in charge of Hong Kong affairs warned that Beijing would intervene if the local government proved unable to contain the violent protests, the most explicit threat of intervention to date from the central government. Conscience is the fundamental core of a prosperous nation and a peaceful society. National governance should be based upon the people and ruled by law to ensure the protection of human rights and dignity. Don't stupid, send me some cash money!

Hong Kong remains crucially important to mainland ChinaThe notion that Hong Kong can be an 'economic' city in which politics plays a minor role has faded, perhaps for ever the credit goes to ... Its economic weight to the country has diminished a lot before the current saga. This trend of relative decline seems irreversible. Democracy is invaluable for HongKongers.
