kong and there are people waving promoting hong kong independence you know waving hong kong flat chanting revolutionary songs you know these are activities that no government would allow a lot of hong kong people are very angry about it john fund revolutionary song well in order john to get aleutian resolve that we are perfectly entitled to chant revolutionary songs in 3 countries regina europe you can go to london or washington and chant whatever revolutionary songs you want why don't you try it. it depends on whether the songs are chanted as in an opera les miserables la or chant as a part up and well organized and well planned action plan to stoke separatist sentiments. at the end of the day your your reason your pitch to the people of hong kong is trust beijing this security law will not be used in the same way that beijing uses its security laws to tamp down on freedoms on the mainland this is what you are asking them to accept that china is not going to behave the way it behaves on the mainland in hong kong do you really believe that of course trust our motherland our motherland has

anyway and with her chanting of slogans of free hong kong liberate hong kong one country one nation we've also got a number of flags calling for independence in hong kong and of course the organizers here encourage people to come and share their opinions about the democracy places that quite a boxing organizations are here and gather every year last year we saw about 180000 people gather in victoria park this year which still seems thousands despite that police ban now the organizers however are concerned about the future of rallies like this and that as a result of the national security laws china is going to introduce those laws and potentially target political dissidents or those people who speak out against the mainland and they're worried about the future of big assemblies and gatherings like this and that includes the chairman square can't let ritual to be held for the last 30 years here in hong kong. let's bring in our guest in hong kong we have emily lau a member of the democratic party in beijing and democracy a research fellow at the center for china and globalization and

is hong kong just a start? ian: hong kong is just a start. i think this is absolutely going to get worse on both sides. we are seeing the decoupling of relations between the u.s. and china. there is no trust between the two countries. you are hard-pressed to find a cultural,ue, social, travel, tourism, education, economics, military, you name it. these relations are getting worse. the fact that we can still hold onto the fact -- the relatively limited phase one trade deal is holding on by a thread. it is all we managed to have between the world's two largest economies in the middle of the worst crisis in our lifetime. that is not a good backdrop. shery: ian bremmer, always great having your thoughts, founder and president of eurasia group. we will get more reaction on washington's move in the next hour. we will be joined by the former u.s. ambassador to china, max baucus. for now, breaking news out of japan. we are getting the may factory numbers. fourth straight month of drops when it comes to the main industrial output. a contraction of 8.4

hong kong stability hong kong's prosperity this is all about a fresh new start. for hong kong but regardless we have to also look at finally at the timing of this tomorrow is july the 1st the anniversary of hong kong handover from britain back to china and ultimately beijing seems to be sending a very strong message and that is that in hong kong it is beijing that is in charge between the e.u. in beijing thank you well let's get reaction from home going to brown is our correspondent standing by for us since we heard the news just a few hours ago adrian we've been wondering what the reaction would be from hong kong we're now getting more voices speaking pro-democracy leaders now speaking about their future intentions what more do we know. yes that's absolutely right even before local media announced that this law had been passed it was already beginning to have a chilling effect now joshua wang a well known young democracy activist has said that he's going to be resigning from the political party help to set up he believes he'll be a target of this new security la

now in hong kong. before, this national—security law that i have been threatened, if i spoke out when i got back to hong kong, i would be secretly abducted from hong kong to mainland china. that happened long before this law. exactly. afterwards, the main point is that they legalise their behaviour. it means that they are not secretly doing it, they willjust openly do it, and they have legal grounds to do it. we are in a dark room because we don't know exactly what they will execute, and what is the jurisdiction between mainland china and hong kong, that is what i am so worried about. you are worried that the chinese government has a very clear message. the deputy director of the hong kong affairs office in beijing says it's quite clear the security laws that have now been applied to hong kong will give the majority there much more freedom and protection, because they will no longer fear violence, they will be able to speak the truth on the street without being beaten up, and they will no longer have

, would come back to hong kong to put money in hong kong. what they are concerned about is the reaction from their home jurisdiction. notably the u.s.. the u.k. also and elsewhere. they worry about what their respective home jurisdictions will do to companies. many of the bankers told me they are not worried about the chinese security law, but they worry about some of the unnecessary sanctions from home jurisdictions. >> which is my question to you. are you worried about that, about these countries putting sanctions that may hinder business relations with hong kong, not to mention what happens if the special trading status from the u.s. is revoked? is all of this along with all the protests and all of the negativity that comes with it really worth it given hong kong's future, especially as a financial hub? top threethe financial hub in the world. there is tons of u.s. interest in hong kong. ifould be surprised to find not half of all the financial service providers in hong kong are u.s.-based. if the u.s. tried to put sanctions on hong kong,

that is why time is running out in hong kong. we need to recognize hong kong as hong kong. haidi: great to have you with us. thank you for your time. wong speaking to us. coming up on "bloomberg daybreak: asia," more on the outlook when it comes to the relationship between beijing and the u.s. legco member will be along with us as well. plenty more to come on "bloomberg daybreak: asia." this is bloomberg. ♪ shery: new york oil futures are retreating after surging to a three month high. fresh data on weak demand and uncertainty as to whether opec there's will adhere to output curbs or extend them. su keenan is on the line. you are taking a look at the rebound being at risk since march. it has been an explosive rally, but where do we go from here? su: when you consider oil had fallen below zero in wti, it has been a huge rally. we are seeing extended trading falling from the three month high, new york traded west texas intermediate and brent as well. the u.s. government put out a report casting freshened out on the strength of the recovery of -- fresh doubt on the strength

reporting on hong kong should have a very deep and gauge and the fate of hong kong i hope that people can see that we care. what will happen in 123 or 4 years are they going to shut us down are they going to take away our newspaper registration will we see over censorship in hong kong. after 14 years this is home to me. i think it's yeah it's a city worth fighting for. i'm probably the most pessimistic person in the room but i guess the good thing about hong kong has a very vibrant civil society but never the government does something there is a big response. when the public's more informed about what's happening in the world and they can make more informed decisions about how they want to be run the government. press freedom is you know important to take the end of climate of the carding freedoms. the british iraqi journalist. this visualizing complex statistics in a simple art form i think of as are some really exciting opportunities to break apart from those systems of power and to collect data in a way that better represents the different community challenging mainstream misconcep

hong kong has those laws. what china wants is the sort of law that would be unacceptable to people in hong kong because it would take away some of their basic freedoms. that's what the argument is about, not whether there should be national security law. yvonne: that was the former hong kong governor speaking to stephen engle. some lines crossing from local media. ming powell reporting that china is to holder press briefing on the security law -- is to hold a press briefing on the security law this tuesday and they will publish it in the government gazettes. this could perhaps be the first time see the full language and text of the national security legislation. we did have early reporting that said the law committee will be meeting later today immediately after this was passed, to discuss the insertion into the basic law. perhaps we will get more detail later this afternoon. we have a and continuation of the rhetorical but also the cheerio tit-for-tat between the u.s. and china -- but also the material tit-fo

we'll have live updates from beijing and hong kong. i'm convinced this is al jazeera live from doha also coming up. beijing warns of consequences after the u.s. congress passes a law targeting chinese officials involved in detaining some weak it's. a bombshell from the former u.s. national security adviser john bolton's new book says donald trump asks for china's help to get reelected plus. anger among help workers in peru about a mark of protective gear as the nation records the 7 highest number of covert 90 cases in the world. there are reports china's top decision making body has passed a draft of a security bill for hong kong the controversial legislation was announced in may and sponsor weeks of protests in hong kong it's been widely criticized amid fears it will curb freedoms in hong kong something that authorizes have dismissed. and we have correspondents in beijing and hong kong on the story adrian brown will be with us in just a moment but 1st let's go to try to you who is in the chinese capital catrina run us through china's

but your pay hong kong. i a lwa ys message. but your pay hong kong. i always think in the end as a loyal resident of hong kong. do you really wa nt to resident of hong kong. do you really want to see hundreds of thousands potentially millions of the brightest and the best in hong kong making in exodus, a rush for the exit door and leaving the territory? well, i would say why not? at least we need to protest the people of hong kong that is the first duty. we need to safeguard. because if they still staying in hong kong and they have sacrifice with their life, it's worthless to me. i would say that is not just rescue worthless to me. i would say that is notjust rescue the hong kong people, it means that they rescued the people, that love democracy. and that they scaled rescue. that the british citizens as well. do you think many hong kong is will choose to try to leave at least? at least we need to give life boats to them. if they wanted they have a way to leave. it's about more though than just the capacity to give to people who have the passport to le

culture, the vibrancy of hong kong. it's just absolutely stunning, and it's all possible. it's all possible, let's be clear, because freedom has prevailed in hong kong, or at least it used it, freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, freedom to practice their faith as they see fit, an independent judiciary and the rule of law. and all of that, all of it, is very, very seriously threatened right now by the chinese communist party because their greatest fear is that the people on the mainland will observe the freedoms in hong kong and decide maybe they'd like some of those freedoms too and that is the risk the chinese communist leadership cannot tolerate. i want to commend my colleague from missouri for putting a spotlight on this, bringing it to the attention, and calling the senate to defend the people who seek only their freedom. and i very much want to thank my colleague from maryland. as he pointed out, we've been partners on legislation in the past. nobody works heard to get their -- harder to get their objective acc

always remain hong kong was chinese justification for this well hong kong will always remain as hong kong the one country 2 system will continue up to. $2847.00 and nothing will be changed in hong kong now every country has a national security law the british does have that the united states have that what china is doing for hong kong now is no more than what the british had in hong kong prior to $997.00 just imagine anyone would do anything in hong kong prior to $99.00 this summer which would threaten the national security interest of british empire or the british government or the british monarch for example no way it's not possible the british rulers before 997 would never tolerate any such threat to the british national security interest it is the same case for china we know what china what hong kong has experienced over the past a year or even over the past 4 years or so and i think this national security law is very much targeted against any person any political force which wants to use hong kong. a threat to challenge china's sovereignty over hong kong and to china challenge t

kong so this in comps is any anti hong kong governmental anti p.r.c. government speech and combed up it's done by anybody and if they happen to pos through hong kong they could potentially be prosecuted down to about nil and what does it mean for hong kong's judiciary the judges for example in hong kong will they now be bypassed and will everything take place in mainland john. that is not you will case that's already happened we've seen with the interpretation of the hong kong basic law by the national people's congress standing committee that any legal decision any constitutional position of pleasure to importance is already being taken at the hands of hong kong judges i expect that to become much more frequent especially with the article $55.00 mechanism and even with the specifically hand-picked couldn't put national security judges in hong kong i suspect the mainland authorities will be keen to use them if that has to come home courts that we question you mentioned that this law bans any collusion with foreign forces foreign governments what is thi

joshua long what's at stake in the hong kong pro-democracy movement. hello i'm terry martin thanks for joining us for a memorial service is being held in houston for george floyd the black man who died after a white police officer knelt on his neck for almost 9 minutes as the events unfolded democrats in congress proposed a bill aimed at preventing more police misconduct floyd's death 2 weeks ago minneapolis has sparked worldwide protests against racism and police brutality. hundreds scorching texas sky. thousands queued for hours to enter the church where george floyd's body lay a last chance for the public to pay their respects to the man whose death has become a rallying cry against racism around the globe. the public hearing was held in houston the city where floyd grew up. well this is an important day in our world. and. it is necessary for me to be here. as a human being. human race being an african-american man it is. why people have the luxury of assuming the police are good and assuming the police are on their side but the reality is that blac

this is a good thing for hong kong. it will bring stability to hong kong. there are a lot of people in society, including the business society as long -- as well as the human rights field, that say this is a crushing defeat for freedom. >> activists have been swift in the reaction. what has been the reaction inside the city? well, we are still all digesting. they came out at 11:00 at night. not everybody was up all night going through this thing. they are now dust -- just digesting it. three of the heads of the pro-democracy party have quit. they have disbanded the party. the thinking is that the leaders do not want to implicate the other members of the party. there will be lots of follow-up from this. we will figure out how many people will turn out today and march as promised. july 1 is a traditional date on the calendar ever since the protests in 2003 where half a million people turned out in opposition to article 23. that was the local legislatures above link to the anti-secession and security law but the government has not passed. there could be marche

kong liaison office in beijing as well as hong kong liaison office in hong kong have been holding parallel closed door meetings officials have gone in those are still taking place we know that hong kong delegates are not to china's national people's congress that is china's parliament are in attendance in those meetings and we expect that they are currently being briefed on the details of this new national security law we are yet to hear any announcement from china's state media any confirmation of this but we do know that the legislative affairs commission of the n.p.c. as well as the hong kong macao affairs office will be holding a press conference wednesday to g.m.t. that is 10 am local time to announce the details of this national security law to the public so we may have to wait until then to hear more about it certainly if we do that will be a very a symbolic for china as that is the anniversary of the handover of hong kong from britain back to the mainland 23 years ago the international community katrina has been very critical of this and other new legislation in acted on hong kong

kong because the biggest the biggest beneficiary of hong kong is really china since the handover hong kong has become the the play center of chinese hot money so china prefers that they have hong kong in reach all. the minute players in in china could not do it in china because it's not good for the domestic economy can do it in hong kong imagine it's like how. gambling is illegal in any part of china then they are allowed out in the center so there so it is the same thing in all they want to be our cities because there is no replacement shanghai and not the cannot be replaced but this is what i wanted to ask you to have your financial center has china has china taken any steps to make mainland china look more attractive for international banks and bottle investors. remember that a few days ago they announced one of these special economic zones one of the 5 special economic zones they weren't there any of another how come that's not going to happen at least not in the foreseeable future not in my lifetime i'm probably not in the next 50 years for us any place in china it's under the c

that's going to impact hong kong. as i wrote as i summarized the next years a cradle as kind of speech crime i would say that if anyone call on president xi to step back in hong kong is of course under the criteria and afraid of freedom of speech if anyone calling on president xi to step down in mainland china might be arrested with that and he suffered regulation but was the national is a great law applied hong kong what's the best day of it's been in china let me tell you we shall pull out this by also happen it home so how to steal and safe got hall call as the free city at a global community that still enjoy certain degree of political and economic freedom i think that's not only the back of the hall that's all sort of attitude of well and if for us this whole call it the next time i want to later on is the rest of the world just won't thank you very much for talking with us that was democracy activist joshua huang there talking to us from hong kong and here. the coronavirus pandemic has been wreaking havoc on eco

china will not win either because they need hong kong. they need hong kong. also as a gateway to the world. to raise capital for the chinese companies. the thirdis also renminbi offshore center. the strength of hong kong is based on one country, two systems and trust in the principal. >> welter tips are being discussed? what are the alternatives for businesses should a worst-case scenario arise? now, it is the moment of unpredictable and. there are not so many options if you are thinking about the location. in this time of crisis, our companies will not move. medium to long-term, strategies will have to be reviewed. we do not tell our companies what to do. it gets backrtant on the principle of one country two systems. we see it being eroded and undermined. will beijing's crackdown on hong kong help accelerate european efforts to have a more unified response to china's influence? >> i think the european union has been united. in the reaction and the answer. it is quite rare we have this kind of a statement, and it concern, a united reaction. >> the u.k. has no

well this national security law enacted for hong kong is a milestone in hong kong and will serve the purpose of men to need stability and making sure that the one country 2 system can continue to thrive up to 2047 we've seen the turmoil and the violence and the attack on rule of law in hong kong over the past one year and you can see very clearly there have been very obvious for ring finger prints in the tamo in hong kong and this is exactly this national security law is aimed about that is anti subversion anti treason for example and making sure that the one country 2 system is fully abided by and to have it in acted on the eve of the anniversary the 23rd anniversary of the transfer of sovereignty back for a u.k. to china is even more significant and this will be very highly recorded in history of hong kong and i truly believe peace and stability will prevail in hong kong from tomorrow and any political force which really wants to use whole force used as a platform to threaten china sovereignty and national security interest we need to have 2nd thoughts before the indulge in the stu

at hong kong. and this is. well used to play that off on us dollars because trying to cause us to do all the work for the full 7 school of. national security strategy was the us really naming plan in washington. that i think china has a little always wanted to talk a little plainer writing was exactly what we will or should. we were friends with a lever i think is also a very pragmatic in wanting to know why the wall meaning that i think this is war western media and one's over it and. the choice of things and. is we've always said of the all situation you know that there are elements of truth that will spray some more black or trial i think you know it's much more pragmatic the more interesting to watch all the movies that are being. a good beat down a couple that actually. all the thing is doing well in singles actually the right things the. charles and so there is an element of i will see those in the certainly what i think they think what you ministration with think. what. chinese authorities are set to rev

bestows on hong kong and possibly sanction chinese and hong kong authorities. in her defense of the national security legislation. she said it is on the basis of sovereignty for any country and china had the right to introduce such laws for hong kong. she did say her administration appreciates the concerns of the public, but overseas politicians, and made jabs at the u.s. which she said made calls and misleading accusations about the national security laws. noting out at the u.s. double standards in the way in which hong kong is good is sized for handling its protest, given the way the u.s. is handling the unrest on the streets of many cities in recent days. theinda: what we know about tiananmen and virtual ban? thehen: the first time, , that itry of the 1989 has been banned. it has been on the calendar every year, a moment for hong kong people to show their solidarity to those who stood up for democracy in beijing in 1989 . vigil organizers say it has been banned because of concern about the spread of the coronavirus. that is something as well carrie lam talke

article 38 says that this law applies to acts done by non-hong kong residents outside of hong kong. so this encompasses any anti-hong kong government or anti-prc government speech and conduct done by anybody, and if they happen to papass through hg kong, they could pototentially e prosececuted under that law. brent: whahat is it mean for h g kong's judiciary that the judges, for example, in hoho kong, will they now be bypassed and will everything t take place in maiainland china? >> there's an arguablblcase that that h has already happened. we have seen w with the interpretation of hong kong basic law by the national people's congress standing committee that any legal decision, any constitutional decision of any importance is already being taken out of the hands of hong kong judges. i expect that to become much more frequent, especially with the article 55 mechanism, and even with the specifically handpicked quote unquote national security judges in hong kong, i suspect mainland authorities will be keen to use their new powers to cut hong kong courts out of the equation. brent: any

ultimately inserted into hong kong's mini constitution it's basically completely bypassing hong kong or in legislative process now this whole thing has been tremendously fast tracked it's been. about 40 days only since this law was 1st announced during china's national people's congress the opening speech made by leakage and normally these laws take years at least one year for these things to be passed and that really does short of beijing's determination to pass this law and stamp out some of these pro-democracy protests that we've seen occurring since last year analysts say that these pro-democracy protests are simply too much of a threat to beijing's power in hong kong while china's leaders say that these protests themselves are a threat to hong kong stability and prosperity and that this law is designed to protect to that going forward that beijing really has been ultimately frustrated with these protests it's been embarrassing it's been frustrating for china's leaders and it's very symbolic that this law has been passed just the day before the anniversary of hong kong's handover

kong as soon as possible and we've been hearing actually from someone who is hong kong's only delegate to the standing committee of the national people's congress and he said on wednesday that in fact it would be possible for a hong kong suspect to be sent to the. mainland from hong kong if they were accused of threatening national security so that looks to many people here like a sort of reverse engineering of the extradition build a ball so many people out into the streets of hong kong a year ago. thank you that update there adrian brown live for us in hong kong. still ahead on al-jazeera. coronavirus cases in the u.s. will continue to rise since many ignore social distancing. the right to. reorient. and outrage across france of the way police treated a protester who was accused of throwing objects in offices. ally we caught yet more thundery downpours across a good part of your loss of clout showing up on the satellite page but warm sunshine in between fact hot sunshine i've tools that west inside of russia have a dragon in subtly wind that's been picking the temperatures up moscow
