Det har varit en mycket händelserik vecka vad gäller Kina, med särskilt fokus på Hongkong. Stadens parlament stormades av hundratals demonstranter, samtidigt som en våg av massarresteringar av aktivister har påbörjats.
Som ni kan se nedan så har nya protester icke desto mindre ägt rum under helgen, och under söndagen planeras aktiviteter riktade mot kinesiska besökare i norra Hongkong. Något definitivt värt att hålla ögonen på.
Fram emot veckoslutet släpptes en ny, otäck rapport från Xinjiang, som visar hur otaliga muslimska barn där systematiskt skiljs från sina föräldrar och uppfostras till att älska Kina och partiet.
Vidare tydliggör ytterligare en rapport – samt en kartläggning från Foreign Policy – telekombolagets Huaweis kopplingar till Kinas stat och militär. Endast den riktigt ignoranta eller naiva kan nu påstå att Huawei är ett privat företag utan kopplingar till kommunistpartiet.
I Sverige så har Almedalsveckan gått av stapeln, komplett med en storsatsning av Kinas regim. Som reportrar på plats visar, så fick Kinas ambassadör hjälp på traven av bland annat Business Sweden att sprida sin propaganda. Man blir ju mållös.

#HK police are hunting down hundreds of protesters for storming & vandalizing Legco. Dozens of suspects have been identified; wave of arrests 'in the near future' for offenses such as criminal damage, theft & possibly riot. https://t.co/Fqq4nHltug

Atmosphere in Hong Kong remains intense, as another big rally is expected to take place tomorrow. But this time, it’ll be in Kowloon. https://t.co/yimF7kUJir

The paper that I wrote is here and goes into more detail about a very small sub-sample of Huawei employees and their backgrounds and this is important, in their own words describing the work they did for Huawei and Chinese state security 2/n https://t.co/8tNFu0EJSh

***BREAKING***: my new report "Evidence for China’s Parent-Child Separation Campaign in Xinjiang".
Hard, detailed evidence for systematic, state-initiated parent-child separation, weaponized education, cultural genocide. My most heart-rending research everhttps://t.co/G9H82eTjF0 pic.twitter.com/lVbOFxYuHW— Adrian Zenz (@adrianzenz) July 4, 2019
When the U.S. separates children from parents it's all we hear about for weeks on end (rightly so). Will this happen now that China does the same thing on mass scale? Unlikely. https://t.co/4sNcK3Bs5B

Turkey recognizes the fact that the people Xinjiang lead happy lives, Chinese state media on Tuesday cited Turkish President Tayip Erdogan as saying.
I guess the Muslim world's actual care for their spiritual brothers is essentially zero. https://t.co/e4kOHPy9hK

Business Sweden, som samägs av Utrikesdepartementet, deltog på Kinas propagandadag i Almedagen. Samtidigt har UD kritiserat Kina för kidnappningen av Gui Minhai. Hur går det ihop? https://t.co/7aPXpCgwGt

Kinas ambassadör beter sig som väntat i Almedalen. Förnekar politiska fångläger där över en miljon muslimer hålls, och anklagar Sveriges högsta domstol för bristande respekt mot lagen(!) https://t.co/MikdLJKPMG @larsstroman @patrikoksanen @frick @olawong @Peterinexile @KurdoBaksi
