ONCE AGAIN.
IT SOUNDS LIKE HONG KONG
ACTIVIST JOSHUA WONG IS WILLING
TO FOLLOW UP ON
PRESIDENT TRUMP'S PROPOSAL TO
MEET WITH THE CHINESE PRESIDENT
EXCEPT JOSHUA REFERS TO HIM AS
EMPEROR AND NOT PRESIDENT XI.
THE 22-YEAR-OLD ACTIVIST JOINS
US NOW.
THANK YOU FOR JOINING US TONIGH
TONIGHT.
I WANTED TO ASK YOU ABOUT THIS
IDEA THAT THERE ARE FORCES OR
MILITARY ASSETS AND EQUIPMENT
BUILDING UP NEAR THE BORDER.
"THE NEW YORK TIMES" SAYS THIS.
IT IS A CREDIBLE THREAT AND THE
CHINESE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT WANT
TO LEAVE ANY DOUBT THAT IF
NECESSARY, THEY WILL ACT.
WHAT ARE YOUR CONCERNS RIGHT NOW
ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF THAT,
JOSHUA?
>> WHERE THE PAST 24 HOURS OR SO
BREATH PRESIDENT TRUMP AND
VICE PRESIDENT PENCE HAVE SPOKEN
OUT WITH GREAT CAUTION OVER THE
SITUATION IN HONG KONG AND WE
HAVE FACED EXTREME UNCERTAINTY
OVER WHERE THE BEIJING ARMY WHO
INTERFERED IN HONG KONG, WHERE
THE TROOPS WILL STAND TO BE OUR
PROTESTS.
>> WHAT ROLE DOES RELIGION PLAY
WITH THIS, THEY ARE TRYING TO
LEAD THE PRO-DEMOCRACY, OR MAY
BE CONCERNS.
THIS IS POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC
FREEDOM AND THAT IS CRYSTAL
CLEAR.
THEY TALKED TO THEM THE PAST
WEEKEND AND HAS SHOWN
PRESIDENT XI THAT OUR MOVEMENT
FIGHTS DEMOCRACY AND IS FAR FROM
OVER.
>> THERE ARE REPORTS THAT THERE
ARE 1.7 MILLION PEOPLE IN THE
STREETS.
WHERE DOES THIS END AND WHAT DO
YOU HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH THROUGH
THIS?
>> WITH OUR BECAUSE A FREE
ELECTION, WE HOPE TO ELECT OUR
OWN GOVERNMENT, AND WE HOPE TO
LET THE WORLD KNOW THAT OUR
MOVEMENT AND BATTLE WILL
CONTINUE.
>> CHINA TONIGHT IS SUNDAY
MORNING SAYING THAT THE U.S. IS
CAUSING TROUBLE.
THE PRESIDENT HAS SAID IT'S TIME
FOR PRESIDENT XI TO SIT DOWN
WITH SOME OF YOU.
WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO
PRESIDENT XI IF YOU COULD FACE
HIM?
>> PRESIDENT XI MUST RECOGNIZE
FREE ELECTION AND DEMOCRACY IS
THE PROMISE OF BEIJING TO
HONG KONG, AND WHEN 2,000 WERE
FIRED, EVEN TO PROTESTERS DURING
THE PROTEST PEACEFULLY BECAUSE
BULLETS WERE FIRED INTO THE EYE
EYES.
THAT'S NOW THE TIME FOR THE
WHITE HOUSE TO RECOGNIZE THAT
BASIC HONG KONG HUMAN RIGHTS.
>> Shannon: JOSHUA WONG,
SOMEONE WHO'S BEEN LEADING THIS
FOR A LONG TIME.
YOU ARE A YOUNG MAN BUT HAVE
PAID THE PRICE IN AND OUT OF
JAIL AND BEING PART OF THIS
