Hong Kong has blamed the US for inciting the pro-democracy protests against an extradition bill which have ravaged China over past weeks. A spokeswoman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry Hua Chunying said at a news briefing on Tuesday that the US should “remove their black hands” from “Hong Kong’s China.” Protests continue for Chief Executive Carrie Lam to step down, though the government has backed away from the bill.
