Earlier, Chinese President Xi Jinping called on Hong Kong authorities to put an end to the chaos in the city and restore order.

For several months, protests in Hong Kong have not subsided. Initially, people took to the streets to express their disagreement with the amendment to the extradition law, but even after the authorities decided to abandon this change in the law, protesters continue to riot in the city.

In October, kp.ru wrote that the Chinese ambassador to Russia said that the “Ukrainian elements” had begun to travel to Hong Kong to “share their experience” with the demonstrators.
