A penalty shoot out to win because they tell you. They begin the program with a contentious law chinas proposing which would allow beijing to further oversee security in Hong Kong Chinas top Decision Making body is considering a draft of the bill bring it one step closer to becoming a reality despite widespread criticism so we have a fortress in beijing and hong kong closely covering the story will go to adrian brown in a moment 1st betray us in the Chinese Capital so katrina what else do we know about where this word this law potential loss stands. Well we do know that its more surveyed essentially by beijings frustrations and embarrassment following these prodemocracy antigovernment protests that have been taking place in hong kong since last june beijing firmly believes that these are a source of instability and of threats to the regions prosperity they also believe that theyre being filled by forces intent on splitting hong kong from the mainland now critics would say simply its beijings way of taking matters into its or in hands because Anti Government voices in hong kong are simply getting too loud now essentially what would happen with this law is that it would be inserted in hong kongs mini constitution its basic law while completely bypassing the usual legislative process in hong kong now we know that Chinas National Peoples Congress the Standing Committee which is the top legislative body in beijing discussed this law today on thursday and they defined 4 separate crimes under this National Security law which are separatist activity terrorism colluding with Foreign Forces and also state subversion and they also apparently discussed punishments for these individual crimes now were yet to hear any specific details on this but analysts believe that this will will essentially take hong kong one step closer to being like any other chinese mainland province in the sense that any criticism of beijing is likely to be censored or severely punished now the Foreign Ministers from the g 7 nations released a statement on wednesday asking beijing to reconsider this law because they said that it would erode hong kongs fundamental rights now beijings Foreign Ministry on thursday hit back at that statement saying that they oppose it and that these countries are meddling in chinas internal affairs it simply seems like beijing has no intention whatsoever of pulling back from the store anytime soon ok with the latest from beijing adrian brown jurors as down from hong kong so adrian is because you said china is now back backing down but hong kong clearly is not going to just accept it or do they have a choice. Well richelle the devil is in the detail and we simply dont have enough details meet chinas definition of whats a version what is satish and what is succession is very different from other governments the worry here is that hong kong is going to have imposed on it a vaguely worded law the could be broadly applied now in china they have a charge known as picking quarrels and provoking troubles not is the go to weapon of the authorities when they want to go after dissidents human Rights Groups journalists the worry is the same thing could happen here weve been hearing from journalist groups here in hong kong today who have carried out a survey 150 journalists were were questioned 87 percent of them said they now have grave fears about freedom of speech the future of freedom of speech in hong kong and some journalists are saying they might well quit the profession rather than remaining as a journalist we heard also of course thursday from g 7 Foreign Ministers the Foreign Ministers representing the advanced economies of the world they urged china to rethink this security law that court has been ignored but they also pointed out and its important to to mention this the by doing this china is breaching not just hong kongs basic law the mini constitution the lure of hong kong but also breaching the joint declaration thats the deal that britain and china signed before the handover in 1997 a legally binding deal thats been lodged with the United Nations now its not just journalist groups who are worried ive been hearing from others who are also concerned about what the future holds. You find it of a busy street up a narrow staircase where walls are 1st student with stickers advocating hong kong separatism and mocking chinas leaders the building is home to a bookstore specializing in literature sympathetic to hong kongs protest movement and that the only concedes makes him a potential target for chinas new security law something pops especially the us are there were folks there were tight toes on safra to some on the hong kong and ins that we sell so all these might be things that got us in trouble some time later he has reason to worry in 2015 another hong kong bookseller disappeared into chinese custody for 6 months following a visit to the mainland the clock is ticking for the imposition of a law that journalists say could severely restrict freedom of speech in shrines in the deal that britain and china did before the handover in 1997 so were concerned over many questions as to whether we can interview the parent advocate you know film people calling for an end to one part party rule or criticising the government but beyond that were concerned that we wont get on to the top of these questions and this law is going to be. Broadly applied in the same way that it is in the mainland to stifle dissent not so say chinas leaders they insist the new law will only target a minority of one or termed troublemakers who threaten chinas National Security. But in a sign of what may be to come 15 veteran prodemocracy figures have gone on trial accused of taking part in an Illegal Assembly they include albert ho who says hes prepared for jail we have to risk my safety. Liberty that is something im prepared for but i wont give it up the new security law could be in place by july the 1st the 23rd anniversary of hong kongs return to chinese rule well weve had a parallel picture here today richelle because one of chinas Biggest Companies jadi dot com has made its debut on the hong kong stock market and its share value soared this initial Public Offering making more almost 4000000000 dollars meaning it was a 2nd biggest i. P. O. Of the year now that may or may not provide an indication of the ambitions that china has for this place. Adrian brown live for us in Hong Kong Adrian thank you and yes president Donald Trumps former National Security adviser has written a book that makes insatiable accusations about president among those accusations john bolton says trump asked foreign leaders including chinas president to help him get reelected this year thats based on excerpts released to the media early war will be revealed obviously with the because out thats next week in the meantime mike hanna reports from washington. The democrat controlled house of representatives impeach President Trump for his dealings with ukraine ruling that hed withheld aid to leverage information about his political opponent Joe Biden John Bolton refused an invitation to testify before the house but now alleges that this action was typical of President Trumps dealing with a number of countries and he criticizes the house for limiting its investigation to use crain had they taken the time to inquire more systematically about trumps behavior crosses entire Foreign Policy john bolton writes the impeachment outcome would have been different in published excerpts from his book bolton alleges that President Trump sort favors from foreign leaders like the one of turkey and in particular president xi of china bolton recounts President Trumps conversation when he met the chinese president in a soccer on the 29th of june last year trump then stunningly turned the conversation to the coming u. S. President ial election alluding to chinas economic capability and pleading with sheikh to ensure hed when you stress the importance of farmers and increase chinese purchases of soybeans and wheat in the electoral outcome bolton continues i would print trumps exact words but the governments prepublication review process has decided otherwise despite boltons confirmation that the manuscript has been vetted by the National Security council the department of justice has asked a federal court to block publication 50 years ago the Supreme Court held that a similar attempt by the Nixon Administration to block publication of the pentagon papers amounted to censorship the widespread publication of passages from the book is likely to reinforce the federal court in applying precedent and rejecting the trumpet ministrations case next week its likely the public will be able to read the full account of a white house which practices in john boltons words obstruction of justice as a way of life. My kind of aljazeera washington and china has reacted to those allegations saying there is no intention to meddle in the upcoming vote films you are going to need to know and. China pursues a principle of noninterference in others internal feeds we have no intention to interfere in us internal fees or a mere election. Bill schneider is a professor of Public Policy at George Mason University he says its too late for trump to contain the fallout from the new book. Whatever this is going to happen its to me the book is already out there its not in stores yet but its been sent to Media Outlets like to be york times reviews have been published more reviews are coming its too late you cant kill a book like this my take on it is that its shocking its not anything dramatically new but what it really demonstrates is john boltons argument that donald trump is motivated primarily by his personal interest d in everything right now that means his personal interest in getting reelected he seems to be putting his personal interest ahead of the National Interest or at least defining the National Interest and his personal political interest as one in the same that is a very damaging charge and its actually a scandalous charge some people would call it a treasonable charge but its a very strong charge part of it is trumps shocking unfamiliarity with some of the basic facts about International Affairs he wonders whether he asked one point bold reports whether finland is actually a part of russia he doesnt know he seems to be surprised that Great Britain is a Nuclear Power he didnt seem to know that there are many occasions there where hes the lack of knowledge is really quite surprising he also does some embarrassing things like he presses people to deliver a gift an elton john musical cd of a song call rocket man he asks people to deliver that to the leader of north korea who he likes to call rocket man i mean the whole thing is a bit embarrassing. John boltons book also says President Trump told chinas paying that he approved of beijings repression of Muslim Leaders and other minorities while publicly condemning the mass detentions earlier on wednesday trump signed into law an act the calls for sanctions against chinese officials who are involved the United Nations says that to a 1000000 we girls have been detained in camps the chinas government says the centers provide Vocational Training is a Senior Research fellow at the center for china and globalization it says there is an element of duplicity in the white house response to china.

Being the checkpoints or what. Is the truth what is probably our situation in that there are elements of Whose Administration was in iraq over 21 years much more pragmatic the more interesting the wombles that we. Could be mounted. Actually. That all this plan is doing in singles actually the right things that its all charles and so there is a little boy i will see that certainly what i think they think what the administration with thinking was what.
