QatarJoshua Wong, a prominent Hong Kong pro-democracy activist, has pleaded guilty to charges of foreign collusion under Beijing's national security law. The charge relates to his alleged efforts to seek foreign sanctions against China and Hong Kong in 2020 following the implementation of the national security law. Wong, who is already serving a five-year sentence for subversion, faces potential life imprisonment if the court deems the offense 'grave.' His plea came during a hearing in Hong Kong's High Court, where he confirmed his guilt. Wong, a key figure in Hong Kong's pro-democracy movements, including the 2014 Umbrella Movement and the 2019 protests, co-founded the pro-democracy party Demosisto, which dissolved in 2020. Prosecutors allege he communicated with foreign politicians such as Nancy Pelosi and Marco Rubio. The case follows similar convictions of other activists for inciting subversion.
