Earlier, Chinese authorities strongly condemned the adoption by the US Senate of the bill on the protection of human rights and democracy in Hong Kong, which provides for the imposition of sanctions against those who violate human rights.

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.

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