Hong Kong authorities should engage in meaningful dialogue with protesters to restore public security, Michelle Bachelet said in a statement, while welcoming chief executive Carrie Lam’s remarks on her commitment to listen to grievances. Her office “urges the Hong Kong authorities to act with restraint, to ensure that the rights of those who are expressing their views peacefully are respected and protected, while ensuring that the response by law enforcement officials to any violence that may take place is proportionate,” she said.
A state of “panic and chaos” exists in Hong Kong, Lam, the city’s embattled leader, said on Tuesday, defying calls to quit as the stock market tumbled, airlines flagged flight disruptions and anti-government protesters filled the airport.
