Two we can its authoritarianism and to restore democracy to turkey. Yes we deliver that thank you very much indeed and will you be watching for all developments on this story because coming back to you. As and when just a modem a course on that in ankara. Still i from Paris Police Headquarters in hong kong effectively under siege by hundreds of thousands of protesters observers say the police of a doctor so far. And the most passive stance for this its the latest in the demonstrations against. At the extradition bill that would see a criminals. Interest to move easily extracted from hong kong by beijing protest is according to the chief executive carrie lam. Scenes that is based on voice of beijing to resign lets hear from some of the protest. He saw it didnt you our chief executive said she was wrong but she didnt resign. Nobody in the government has stepped down so whats the point of apologizing. Today im a pacifist at heart nonviolent person. And i think thats the case for most protesters were really not right. I hope the police can change this way of labeling i seen on that continues as as the analysis we joined here in the studio by saudi channel artist comedian and activist looking at hong kong whats going on thank you very much for joining us here in the studio are you surprised by what were seeing right now in hong kong the extent of the protest the fact that its taken such a strong stance against the please. I was very very surprised because i was just back to hong kong. In april. And since the Umbrella Movement in a two thousand fourteen people have been telling me tha theres no use protesting anymore. Because they didnt get what they wanted at that time. And that people kind of resigned and and this time i think the extra the extradition bill. Is something so crucial to our everyday life. Three ten and so i think all of the hong kong citizens were very touched and surprised by that but in fact because the first sunday we were. Run by more than a million and on the second sunday we were. More than two millions. Which is huge knowing that in hong kong we are around seven point five million people. I mean the strength of feeling is very clear some people may listen to what. China says about this will beijing says that this will carry lana said about this. That this was a law that was intended to make it easier to extradite criminals persons of interest and some people might say well if thats the case thats not a problem. Explain to us why you see this is a problem and why so many people in hong cd i think. I think this is this is a problem. Not because theres this extradition bill because since nineteen ninety seven hong kong has changed so much. I mean everybody thought it was gonna be one country two systems but actually it is not. I mean that there is a self censorship already. And do. We we saw the the book says sellers who just disappeared into we saw them later on on chinese he t. V. Apologizing. So that the freedom is no longer like before and i think the trust between the citizens. And the Hong Kong Government is broken was broken [inaudible] and it wasnt it wasnt a a alike in in the in the loss system in hong kong it was deliberately like that. Because the system in in china as is just so its not clear to us in intensity about how you frances as an artist at and and to perform a how how. How how does being in hong kong now as it is changing affect how you . How you can be . Lucky enough to have the french post part and i spent a lot of my time in fronts. But each time when i have a project in hong kong when everybody is very enthusiastic. At the end for some reason service certainly do not want to work with me. Because of the way i speak up. So nobody nobody dares nobody dares to see what they think and thats the aspect of self censorship that you were speaking about that basically theyre reacting. To the change in atmosphere since almost hundred back and since last sunday. We just as the cover more and more scandals for example some of the policemen. We do not we cannot see you the identifying number on on petes shoulder anymore and we do know why. And explanation they gave. If they gave us it is doesnt make any sense he said because thats no enough space on on the uniform and is just ridiculous. And also we found out that on the computer in some hospitals theres a special special button for the policemen to find out. Why some off the that this think people unfair if they came from demonstration taking they can be identified. By the policemen and theres a special button in the computer for the policemen. So its very much a Big Brother Society which i presume youre saying is very much akin to what is happening in. The rest of china under Chinese Communist rule. In terms of how far the protest is willing to go sony and and ill include you in those processes because you are part of it in terms of how far theyre willing to come clean now standing up against the police. Surrounded the headquarters and that seems to be incredibly serious but you know were looking for that you think. Well i think. Being to millions. Fighting for the same cost. Give us a lot of courage. And we do not need to justify ourselves anymore whereas in two thousand fourteen the population was quite divided. And what i it were not naive me very we know how tough the that the fights is gonna be. Im we we we we just one minute like recent reasonably. You know we just try to keep the freedom that we have always had and we won first of all i think. A lot of as one pm the extradition bill to be totally cancel the project to be canceled. And second at the five protesters who were arrested we want them to be free. And also we won an independent investigation. To to understand why the the police was so violent to the peaceful protesters. And most of the time the young people got beaten up. We want to understand why so when we want something that we want and in th investigation which is independent and not just watching tv to see them. Pass the ball from one department to the other. So the chance thank you very much for coming to see us here at france twenty four and sharing your experiences. Your thoughts and your feelings about what will happen next and what is happening now in hong kong is a pleasure to meet you. And i wish you all. The best with the projects Going Forward that solution that artist comedian and as weve been hearing. Activist if is very strongly about situation ill say back home in hong kong thank you very much for joining us thank you. Next to life in paris fatally music gets underway this evenin.

This is the second turkish vessel little scene be setting up off the coast of cyprus and it happened to locate undersea oil and gas deposits. And its drawn face criticism from both the Divided Island seven authorities and the European Union. We could hold that the reason for this type which will took is doing. Indeed territorial waters of cyprus is totally unacceptable. The commission has been tough to propose measures. To be taken as soon as possible.
