A long time i am not going to change what we have been doing for you. We look at how the new law is already changing a lot in hong kong. This video shows massive fan attacking refugees trying to come ashore in greece but who has claimed the assaults we asked greeces immigration minister to shed light on the issue. Plus the battle for the last in next seasons bonus league underdogs hide behind challenge favorites. And it was really really close until the very last 2nd. Hello im terry martin good to have you with us hong kongs leader kerry has defended the controversial new security law that china imposed on the city last week she said it would make hong kong safer by preventing violent protests. Ists chills are born citizens not to break the law so the government will vigorously implement this law and i for one those radicals not to attempt to violate this law all crossing the red line because the consequences are bridging this law very serious. Critics fear the law will end freedom of speech in hong kong as. Reports many activists fear the suppression of dissent will be stepped up. He told you that for years now every one has joined fellow members of his party on the 1st of july to mark hong kongs handover to chinese fruit but everything changed last week it isnt uncommon for such serious more peaceful protests to have 100 plus police to search a dozen office i guess this would be the new law you may never see the picture of me then hong kong is on the street ok because we are content not because. We are now happy with the government its because now we have to operate now right thank god it was it was. The 1st protest seems to new security law was put in place which can see offenders go to prison for life for suppression. Several parties have now decided to disband some leading activists have fled but avery and his party are not about to follow suit. Because if for a Political Party to bow down now. To safety or to wrestle hong kong psychologically. Im also 1st compared to go to prison for a long time were not going to change what we have been doing for you but depends on the. Suppression that we are going to face in the future there will be short term mortification and transformation or activism in hong kong theres no doubt a strong sense of fear also lose hope a supporter of selfcensorship has been the most common reaction just as many prodemocracy restaurants have quickly taken down declarations for medical messages leaving empty mammals as a way of silent protest. Beijing in sr long a fact only a minority of lawbreakers critics like political activism is under threat and thats just the 1st step in the now works for an n. C. O. Based in hong kong for decades. It has been application for labor rights across asia hochul has been the popular hope for thousands soft local and international n. G. O. S but a new law means many are now we considering options theres a lot of them break with saying we dont know what do you mean by somehow maybe coley with Foreign Forces because we have stuff from overseas under this law we owe the why then sure like how it will impact even the safety or in the window stuff or water stuff threats to our if we continue to receive for funding we have to somehow p. Pair their worst scenario and we may also consider to move to. Other countries. Beijing has played down the loss in terms saying you merely plans to strengthen the management of n. G. O. S and are all the nice asians in hong kong. Even though is there were clear how the security law will be implemented activist n f a case here will have to be where the face a rocky road ahead. And in the wake of the new security law being a global tech giants have been reviewing their strategies and territory the short form video uptick talk has announced it will exit the Hong Kong Market the move comes after Google Facebook whats up and twitter stop taking requests for user data on talk is a Chinese Company and has been trying to grow its global audience. Well for more on this are joined by clifford turning our china analyst from d. W. Business good to see you clifford so tell us what is to talk a Chinese Company withdrawing its up from stores and from Hong Kong Well i think to talk because its a Chinese Company which is trying to expand globally has to show that its independent of the china market and so it has to be more international than even the more than even the other International Tech giants so its made this. Decision to go even further than facebook and twitter by actually removing its out from the stores it has a chinese wing called obama which isnt affected by this but it shows that they are very keen to be to have this International Image theyve had a lot of problems with their image in the last year or so we had a case last year you might recall where we are girl did make up. Make up to talk during the course of that spoke about the camps the labor camps in so theyve been trying to improve their image theyve hired a guy from disney. Whos whos now looking off to that side of the business as well so its its its really part of that approach is just the 1st real sign of the impact that security law is having on business and uncle i think so i mean we heard in the report there how people are sort of waiting to see how it will be implemented and i think this is an example of the kind of effect that were going to see because weve had these big tech firms on tick tock making these decisions now to to with to withdraw or to to review how theyre approaching hong kong and i think its going to spill over into other areas now and it could be that this is going to be the new normal in hong kong after the security law you mentioned facebook and google big tech firms many of them american its quite unusual to see u. S. Tech for arms of that size challenging beijing it it is i mean were still waiting for apple apple hasnt made its statement yet but but the fact that twitter and facebook are already reviewing is a very big signal to talk so i think youre going to see more pushback now against china if we think about huawei weve had the way story on telecoms for so long in a way this whole area about what sort of control the Chinese Government can have of international. International companies when theres a different kind of different playing fields as it were between these companies and between these government controls thats coming more and more to the fore and i think its going to be played out in Hong Kong China analyst for coding thank you very much. Its a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today in australia the state of victoria has announced another lockdown of milburgh in the countrys 2nd largest city thats more than 5000000 people ordered to stay home unless going out from work food exercise or medical care the law now begins at midnight and will last at least 6 weeks. Brazilian president says hell be tested again for coated 19 after having an x. Ray of his lungs all sonora has repeatedly ignored precautions like wearing a mask and socialist using but has tested negative for corona virus at least 3 times brazil is the worlds 2nd hardest hit country by the pandemic after the u. S. And in colombia at least 7 people have been killed and Dozens Injured after the contents of an overturned tanker exploded in a fireball scores had gathered around the tanker after the accident to try to siphon off fuel but it ignited causing an inferno. Video has emerged showing must manage tacking the boats of migrants trying to reach greets up to now the identity of the attackers has been unclear but our own Investigations Unit and the Research Collective belling cat have uncovered information suggesting they may have been linked to the greece coast guard thins denies all wrongdoing we will have more from the greek minister in a moment but 1st this report by the w. s begin to show and you leon. The sea off greece poses a puzzling question was a disturbing answer more migrant boats are leaving turkey for the e. U. But on the greek island of les plus there hasnt been an increase in a rivals. There were 19 people on this boat but that one. Is 16 year old from afghanistan to these pictures he said it was shortly after masked men attacked them from ending the boat was in the quaters off last bus on the 5th of june this year the boy doesnt want to be identified. By our my father for much of the course 2 men have all of us military stated they are wearing black mark on their faces and one have nice color or more and the you would be wired which is connected. We analyzed dozens of similar reports and videos comparing them such as coastlines and the position of the sun along with information from emergency calls official reports and eyewitness accounts. Our conclusion refugees and migrants are being kept away from the greek coast at times by force it seems masked men often attack migrant bolts on the open seas damaging them so they cant be steered and leaving them adrift sometimes they even actively force the boats back into to fish waters a tactic known as push back. These push backs against International Law but its difficult to establish for certain who these messman actually are even though the evidence is apparently of overwhelming. Evidence such as this video. A Detailed Analysis of both structures let our colleagues from the investigative platforms belling cat and lighthouse reports to clearly identify the d. M. V. As belonging to a greek coast guard ship. But greece denies using illegal methods the coast guard told t w. The operations conducted by a Harbor Police and hellenic coast guard are in accordance with International Law and international conventions. We also asked the European Border agency from texas which works closely with the precocious guard their answer didnt refer to the incidents in question they just said all of their Border Control operations conform to the highest standards my question to context you say you dont know but how could you not know and what steps have you taken to rebut what we have as evidence. Kiki has been watching migrants moving across the gene sea for years and has seen a rise in the number of pushbacks she has been monitoring the situation for the European Center for constitutional and human rights. The e. U. Is expected to stand up for a new law to be respected and we have we have seen it in public statements made by representatives of the e. U. Institutions and we havent seen it in any sort of legal action that new institutions have to power to take against Member States not respected. Members of the European Parliament and the Un High Commission for refugees are demanding an official investigation they say greece has the right to defend its borders but it must do so within International Law. And not just greek minister for immigration and asylum joins us now from thank you for being with us mr material here is the great coast guard actively pushing back migrants in the aegean sea. Absolutely not we fully abide by the not in an utopia nobody got in the protection of our times because in a few days when facing a crisis we experienced 9800 islands in 2020 a lot number has doubled understand for the overcall that comes in the other side into the system but we are protecting a boat this the coast guard is up to be that to protect human life and sea and i am pleased to be part of in 2021 of the few have loss of life ever that indeed we have on and off one platform in the 1st half of clinton when the standard at the bottom but a positive development for the protection of human life you may have seen those pictures of must men pushing back those boats in the aegean sea indeed what appears to be attacking the migrants in those boats is greece using proxy to do that do you know who those men in those boats are and how they got there i havent seen the pictures but effecting out what not using not really any proxies the l. N. Court of god and from tax and occasionally nate all of that to protect this the borders of the European Union you wont know that since march we faced an organized question from our neighbors the uk then who crossed more than 1032000 people in never once was well organized and the entire leadership of the European Union the presidency of cons of the presidency of the commission the president then see all of the company youve been you know world there to demonstrate the sort of dotting the of the European Union you know i want to talk about using it as a Political Tool for geo political objective that clearly isa needs you for the European Union and when its done says date the European Parliament into plenty would be discussing a need to be nice at the pentagon thanks aggression but do you feel left alone by the rest of the e. U. In dealing with the migrants coming to greece. I think there is not sufficient support for relocating people who are there from the front line states to the rest of europe we currently have a 100 in 1000 feet i side with you getting this you understand what the Asylum Service is thats a huge burden for out of the 8 comes thats a big number we would need more support for other countries to help us with Asylum Seekers and refugees but at the same time you understand most beautifully and companies that are not actively participating in a mechanism for the look ation of Asylum Seekers and refugees and thats something that we need to work for in the europe and migration pock as well as the hormone spoilers. Mr majority thank you very much for talking with us that was not just majority agrees minister for immigration and asylum.
