12:35 pm
you see an overall race to the bottom and the whole of europe in union when it comes to the common asylum system, where every country that's been worst and the neighboring country because they want to be less attractive. so in a way, it is part of the overall european policy to be the least attractive country out there. belgium has a housing waiting list of a single man, which they cut off at $2700.00 names. so there are at least that many sleeping rocks, many hundreds more unable to even get the name on the list. the domestic belgian courts have ruled 8000 times against the government not upholding the right to reception. as did the european court of human rights against belgium over 1700 times, we received a written response from the office of the belgian state sex tree in charge of asylum. according to its belgium, faced a 40 percent increase in asylum requests in 2022 from 2021 and with 30 full size

12:37 pm
outside, but lives very tough here now. and it's not even when to yet china as far motion as i've seen as an extension of beings influence in europe. the country leaders bills harshly with critics of damaging, including those who have fled into exhausted. fin law who lives in london has been tirelessly advocating for freedom of expression and democracy in his homeland. for years, the chinese government has offered a bounty for inflammation that could lead to his of asked the hong kong chinese active is does not feel safe. even in a 5 of the freedom for hong kong from eggs island, london, fin low fights for democracy in his home country. despite the hong kong government offering a bounty of over 100000 euros for his capture. including myself, this token of the system has
12:38 pm
a price tag to my life. as well as my unwavering quest for democracy is essentially to transnational repression. the aims and crushing older voices as pro democracy across the globe. the hong kong authorities went to arrest the 30 year old and put them on trial in hong kong. they claim that's been low and 7 other active as there's a verse of elements working with foreign governments to infiltrate the state. we want to reclaim our destiny. we watch and reclaim all freedom, reclaim our rights to democracy. that's what self determination. hong kong has had a special administrative status since it's hand over from britain to china in 1997 . it's based on a doctrine of one country to systems. but this principle is showing cracks. beijing is exerting increasing influence. 4 years ago,

12:40 pm
arrival in britain, where he was brutally beaten up by a group of strangers. the british government does not want to extradite in laos, and the british foreign secretary says no attempts to intimidate and silence people will be tolerated. we've repeatedly asked the chinese embassy in london for a statement, but haven't received a reply. china town isn't epicenter of london's chinese community. hardly anyone here wants to comment on the situation in hong kong. it's too sensitive. those who do express and opinion tend to support the chinese government and its influence in hong kong. the hong kong should definitely have his right to make decisions. of course that is true because the separate policies, but i do believe that hong kong is in on separate both part of china. a 100 economy like is actually pretty bad as he is. so i think is good for home people as well
