Question

What democratic rights are the Chinese government trying to get rid of by prescreening candidate for the position of chief executive

Answer 1

Answer:

This move has dented international credibility of China, already the world’s second largest economy, which has pledged to be a more responsible rising power in the world stage. If Beijing can so easily break its promise for Hong Kong, then the rest of the world must ponder whether the Chinese government will live up to other international commitments.
