Hong Kong protests: Carrie Lam condemns ‘extreme use of violence’
Chief Executive Carrie Lam spoke at a press conference hours after activists broke into the Legislative Council (LegCo) building and vandalised its main chamber.
She said the break-in, on the anniversary of Hong Kong's transfer of sovereignty to China from Britain, “shocks a lot of people”.
“Nothing is more important than the rule of law in Hong Kong,” she said.
