Hong Kong, Jul 2 (EFE/EPA).- The National Security Law that Beijing imposed on the semi-autonomous Chinese city of Hong Kong this time last year silenced the protests that erupted in 2019 but also led to mass arrests, the marginalization of the political opposition and prompted many citizens to consider emigrating.One such person is Tom, a man in his 30s who, like others, preferred not to give his full name for security reasons.“I want to have a better future. Hong Kong is not a stable place,” he told Efe, adding that he planned to move to the United Kingdom. (Camera: ARCHIVE).ARCHIVE FOOTAGE OF THE PROTEST IN HONG KONG.
