HONG KONG'S government has ruled out talks with pro-democracy protesters, and is preparing to enforce a court ruling to clear the streets, the city's No. 2 official said.
Student leaders made "unrealistic" demands in the first round of talks last month, Chief Secretary Carrie Lam told reporters on Tuesday. There's no need for protest leaders to seek direct talks with Chinese officials in Beijing, she said.
