"Hong Kong’s national security police have issued arrest warrants for 19 activists based overseas, accusing them of subversion under a stringent national security law, marking the largest such tally yet."
The UK’s foreign and home secretaries condemned the move in a joint statement, calling the arrests
“another example of transnational repression”
and saying it damages Hong Kong’s international reputation.
“[The UK] will not tolerate attempts by foreign governments to coerce, intimidate, harass or harm their critics overseas,” they said in a statement on Friday.
In response, the Chinese embassy in the UK said the British government’s remarks “constitute a gross interference” in China’s internal affairs and the rule of law in Hong Kong."
