The EU Office received a petition from protestors today because we voiced concerns about Art. 23. Even though we do not share their opinion, we wholeheartedly support their right to peaceful protest. This is a fundamental freedom which the EU supports in Hong Kong and worldwide.

We should treat the PRC as a threat to our democratic values. They've been actively launching ideological wars to undermine democracy and champion dictatorship. There's no room for complacency.
