1:02Now PlayingChina confirmed that a proposed national security law would allow Beijing to override Hong Kong’s independent legal system, shedding new light on a move that has stoked tensions with the U.S. and threatens the city’s status as a top financial center.
The draft bill also calls for Hong Kong to establish a new committee to protect national security, which will be supervised and accountable to Beijing. Hong Kong chief executive will oversee the committee, as well as appoint judges to handle criminal cases brought under the law. Authorities in Beijing will have the final say on interpreting the law.
