Activists fleeing Hong Kong recount their suffering amid the lack of democracy

Many citizens of Hong Kong fled to European countries and other neighboring countries, after its transfer of Chinese sovereignty due to the systematic policy of the ruling authorities to silence its critics and its violation of human rights. Citizens of Hong Kong feel compelled to flee for fear of becoming the next victims of these reprisals by the security authorities. Several famous activists, politicians, and artists mentioned their suffering in light of the lack of democracy in their countries, and the reasons that led them and others to escape from tyranny in Hong Kong and search for freedom, rule of law, and democratic values in other countries.
