Joshua Wong pleads guilty to colluding with foreign forces to endanger national security
涉嫌勾结境外势力危害国家安全，黄之锋当庭认罪
On September 2, 2026, the Hong Kong High Court heard the case of Joshua Wong, a Hong Kong activist labeled as an 'anti-China destabilizer,' who pleaded guilty to 'conspiracy to collude with foreign or external forces to endanger national security.' The charge stems from actions between July and November 2020, when he allegedly conspired with Law Kwun-chung and others to request foreign entities to impose sanctions or hostile actions against Hong Kong or China. Wong is already serving a 4-year-8-month sentence for subversion and was arrested in prison in June 2025 for this new charge.
