5 key takeaways from the UNHRCom’s first Concluding Observations on Hong Kong re ICCPR since the NSL was enacted. Link to the COs today: tbinternet.ohchr.org/Treaties/CCPR/… (1/x)
1/ the CO stresses that anyone or NGO engaging in the UN human rights bodies must not be criminalised or at risk of reprisals (para 50), whereas the HKG refused to warrant free participation of individuals and groups in UN mechanisms in the hearings.@UNHumanRights (2/x)
Civil society organisations, espy trade unions and human rights groups engaging in the UN mechanisms and global community must not be read as colluding with foreign forces.  (3/x)

Thank you @weimers for the invitation. My 4 pts:
1. EU should use its economic leverage to pressure China
2. Magnitsky sanction against all violators of HR
3. Life-boat is welcome, but first we want to save HK
4. Radical protesters also need support, not just peaceful ones.
1. Adding human rights clauses is indeed important in Bilateral Investment Treaty, but signing the BIT itself at this moment is redering the EU dependent on China. EU should only sign the BIT if China lifts the #NationalSecurityLaw.
2. Magnitsky Act should sanction all officials that violate human rights in China and #Hongkong, from top officials like Carrie Lam to low ranking ones like returning officers and police officers.
