Trump Won’t Back Hong Kong Protesters

President Trump’s top aides are urging him to back Hong Kong’s pro-democracy protesters, but the president isn’t interested, Politico reports.

“As the protests have intensified over the past month, the president has remained determined to keep China’s human rights abuses from complicating his trade negotiations, going so far as to make a unilateral concession to Xi in the run-up to the G-20 Summit in June.”
