BEIJING (Reuters) – The top decisionmaking body of the Chinese parliament will review a draft Hong Kong national security legislation during its session in Beijing that began on Thursday, the official Xinhua news agency reported.
Xinhua said the draft legislation specifies the definition of four crimes: separatist activity, state subversion, terrorist activity and collusion with foreign forces. The bill also specifies punishments for such crimes, the report said.
