The United Kingdom withdrew from its extradition
treaty recently with Hong Kong because of violations by Communist China of the
former British territory’s autonomy and liberty, which Peking
had promised when the city-state reverted to Chinese rule in 1997. Many States around the world have imposed
sanctions on China . Meanwhile, Hong Kong residents demonstrated without
signs or slogans that would expressly violate China ’s new security law that
squelches dissent. A journalist critical
of Communist China was arrested for alleged violations, as more and more basic
freedoms are no longer tolerated.
The United States imposed economic sanctions against
Chinese companies for human rights abuses against Muslim Uighurs in East Turkestan .
The U.S. has also
been continuing to crack down on Chinese technology companies that pose
potential security threats to America
and its allies.
There have
been mass protests in Belarus
after the government’s disputed claim of the reelection to a sixth term of “the
Last Dictator of Europe,” who has ruled the former Soviet
Republic since independence from the Soviet Union .
Serious allegations of flagrant election fraud have been made. Before the election, several presidential
candidates had been barred from standing for election. There have been thousands of arrests and
violence has been used against peaceful protestors. Russian Federation tyrant Vladimir
Putin has threatened military intervention to support the authoritarian
Belarusian leader.
The
Catholic Bishops of Zimbabwe have issued a statement today against the human
rights abuses of the far-left government of Zimbabwe . Zimbabwe
has been ruled in an authoritarian manner by the same Marxist-oriented party
since independence from the United
Kingdom in 1980.
