Diocese of Hong Kong "Extremely Concerned" Over Arrest of Cardinal Joseph Zen | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

The Diocese of Hong Kong says it is "extremely concerned" over the arrest of its former bishop, Cardinal Joseph Zen. Despite international condemnation over the 90 year old cardinal's arrest, China is justifying its actions. According to China's foreign ministry, "Hong Kong is a law-based society where no organization or individual is above the law." Enforcement of a 2 year old national security law has quashed political dissent and imprisoned many pro-democracy advocates in the former British territory. Director of the Captive Nations Coalition on the Committee on Present Danger: China, Se Hoon Kim, joins to talk more about Cardinal Zen's arrest and what message he thinks China is trying to send. Se Hoon discusses what Zen's arrest says about religious freedom in China, especially for Christians. Se Hoon shares whether he thinks the Diocese of Hong Kong's statement about the arrest was strong enough to rebuke China's actions.
