Mike Pence says US ‘stands with’ Hong Kong protesters and calls out Nike and NBA for hypocrisy
- Despite criticising China on many fronts, Pence said the US sought neither to ‘decouple’ with the country nor contain its economic development
- ‘Nike promotes itself as a so-called social justice champion, but when it comes to Hong Kong, it prefers checking its social conscience at the door,’ he said
