(MENAFN) A state media said China has warned that anyone advocating for Hong Kong's independence could be punished.
In detail, the stern message came after young pro-democracy activists won seats on Hong Kong's Legislative Council (LegCo).
Moreover, the Chinese government underlined its "resolute opposition" to any independence activities on the council or outside it.
It's worth mentioning that many in Hong Kong are increasingly concerned about Beijing's interventions in its politics.
