The case has drawn international attention, with former U.S. President Donald Trump stating he would do “everything” possible to help Lai and vowing to raise the issue during a meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping. A U.S.-registered nonprofit, the Committee for Freedom in Hong Kong, denounced the charges as “trumped-up” and called on the U.S. government to hold Hong Kong and Chinese officials accountable.
