Pro-democracy protest leaders (front-back) Nathan Law, Alex Chow (partially covered) Eason Chung and Yvonne Leung arrive for talks with Hong Kong authorities, aimed at ending weeks of rallies, on the same day the city’s leader ruled out democratic reforms, in Hong Kong on October 21, 2014. The crucial talks began just hours after Hong Kong chief executive Leung Chun-ying said open elections would result in the largest sector of society — the city’s poor — dominating the electoral process, adding that free elections were impossible.
