U.K. Suspends Extradition Treaty With Hong Kong Over New Security Law

The video discusses the UK's response to a new Chinese national security law affecting Hong Kong. British Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab describes the law as altering key assumptions of the UK-Hong Kong extradition treaty, leading to its suspension.

In response, the UK extends its arms embargo to Hong Kong, preventing the sale of potentially lethal weapons that could be used against citizens.
