การประท้วงระดับโลกเพิ่มขึ้นเมื่อฮ่องกงเสนอรางวัลให้กับนักกิจกรรมที่สนับสนุนประชาธิปไตยต่างประเทศ

Hong Kong authorities have issued arrest warrants and bounties for 19 pro-democracy activists living abroad, accusing them of subversion and involvement in the unofficial 'Hong Kong Parliament.' The move has sparked strong condemnation from the UK, US, Australia, and other Western nations, who view the bounties as an act of transnational repression and a threat to international legal norms. Critics argue that Hong Kong, under Beijing's influence, is targeting free speech and political participation beyond its borders. The activists, many of whom are citizens or residents of countries like the UK, Australia, and the US, now face significant personal risk. The controversy has further strained relations between Hong Kong and Western governments, who have vowed to support the targeted individuals.
