Chinese state media is claiming protesters in Hong Kong are
June 10 (UPI) — Chinese state media is claiming protesters in Hong Kong are «in conspiracy with the West» after organizers said about 1 million citizens gathered on Sunday to oppose a new extradition amendment.
Beijing’s state tabloid Global Times said Monday «radical forces» are opposing a proposed law that could allow authorities in Hong Kong to extradite people to mainland China, and that the activists are engaged in a conspiracy.
The Global Times claimed the activists traveled to the United States, Britain, Canada and Germany in March and May. With the help of «foreign intervention,» the activists «recruited citizens» to march against the law.
