U.S. to take action on China over Hong Kong this week: Trump

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday (May 26) he is preparing to take action against China this week over its effort to impose national security laws on Hong Kong, but did not give details. Hundreds of riot police took up posts around Hong Kong's legislature overnight, as protests were expected on Wednesday (May 27) over a bill criminalizing disrespect of China's national anthem and against plans by Beijing to impose national security laws. - REUTERS
