US-China Tensions Rise as Beijing Signals Tightening Controls on Hong Kong | Voice of America - English

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo released a statement Friday saying he "condemns" China's parliament for proposing legislation that he claimed "would be a death knell for the high degree of autonomy Beijing promised for Hong Kong."
