OverviewAPI
Hong Kong trial begins for Jimmy Lai, a prominent media mogul accused of colluding with foreign forces and calling for sanctions on Hong Kong and Chinese officials. The trial is seen as a test for Hong Kong's judicial independence and freedoms under the national security law imposed by China in 2020. Britain calls for Lai's release, citing concerns about the law being a breach of the Sino-British Joint Declaration.
