Donald Trump at the UN: World expects Beijing to honour the Hong Kong Handover deal
Hong Kong Free Press ^ | 9/24/19 | President Trump

Published on Sep 24, 2019 US President Donald Trump put China on notice at the United Nations on Tuesday over its handling of the Hong Kong crisis, urging Beijing to protect the former British territory's "democratic" way of life.

Trump told the UN General Assembly his administration was "carefully monitoring" pro-democracy protests that have sparked the gravest political crisis in the Asian financial hub since its handover from Britain to China in 1997.

Donald Trump at the UN: World expects Beijing to honour the Hong Kong Handover "binding treaty" made with UK and registered in the UN.

Short and concise video of President Trump at the UN stating facts about Hong Kong and China's agreement with UK and international community.

Short - only 45 seconds.

This is great that President Trump states this so clearly and accurately.

The venue is exactly where to say it also.

i am glad Pres Trump made this statement
but it is unknowable if it will work to repair the problem or not
PDJT needs to be at the ready to back it up

With the Deep State’s rolling attempt to topple the US government, why would China agree to anything with the US. They will likely just wait and see what happens to our country first.

“have sparked the gravest political crisis in the Asian financial hub since its handover from Britain to China in 1997”

That actually was pretty smooth.

agreed. all the seditious attacks from within against USA.. are weakening our country both at home and on the world stage

the ChiComs will either so as you say and wait it out, or else they will simply move with quick strength to enforce their will on HongKong

the stage is set, alas... we will see but there is cause for concern

The Chicoms have their own problems.

They need a stable Hong Kong more than they need a subdued Hong Kong.
