Update: Massive Protests for Freedom in Russia and Hong Kong (China)

           There continue to massive protests in the Russian Federation and Hong Kong, the special territory of Communist China, and mass arrests of peaceful protesters by authorities.  Both regimes have been using violence and the threat of violence.

Russians are demonstrating against the lack of free of fair elections and against the corruption of the tyrannical regime of ex-KGB (the Soviet intelligence agency) officer Vladimir Putin. 

Residents of Hong Kong have been taking to the streets against the loss of autonomy for the former British territory, which China promised to respect, along with liberty, when it reverted from the rule by the United Kingdom in 1997.  However, Peking has been increasingly encroaching on Kong Kong’s self-rule. 

The United States has not spoken up for freedom of assembly for Russians and Chinese, under Donald Trump, the pretender to the American presidency, as much as it has had a consistent foreign policy of promoting human rights, as he was elected in part through “sweeping and systemic” Russian interference and he has international conflicts of interests that he refuses to reveal.
