About this episode
As Beijing asserts further control of Hong Kong, threatening the “one country, two systems” policy the city has known since 1997, pro-democracy protesters and lawmakers alike are fighting to preserve the freedoms they have known. One of them is Dennis Kwok, a legislator who has drawn the ire of China’s government and says he and his compatriots fear “redress” for speaking out against increasingly “draconian” laws being forced upon the city.
In an in-depth conversation with Ian Bremmer, Kwok explains Hong Kong’s precarious situation and uncertain future.
