On 11 December, Stand with Hong Kong EU — the European division of Fight for Freedom. Stand with Hong Kong — published a 52-page sanctions submission titled An EU Perspective on Hong Kong: Sanctionable Human Rights Violations Committed During the 2019–2020 Protests. The submission compiles evidence of human rights violations committed by Hong Kong authorities during the protest period and recommends targeted sanctions under the EU Global Human Rights Sanctions Regime. Formed in 2019–2020, Stand with Hong Kong EU works to keep Hong Kong on the EU–China agenda by highlighting shared values between Europe and Hong Kong and by engaging directly with EU institutions and member states. The sanctions submission marks the first time a Hong Kong advocacy organisation has formally requested the EU to sanction Hong Kong officials under the bloc’s global human rights sanctions mechanism
