Half of African Countries Publicly Back China's Policy on Hong Kong

 The Diplomat published on 9 October 2020 an analysis titled "Which Countries Support China on Hong Kong's National Security Law?" by Shannon Tiezzi.

Twenty-seven out of fifty-four African countries recently joined a statement by Pakistan's ambassador to the United Nations in support of China's policy in Hong Kong.  Not a single African country signed on to a statement by the German ambassador to the UN that criticized China's policies in both Hong Kong and Xinjiang.
