English to Russian: Joshua Wong and 2 Others Jailed in Hong Kong Over Pro-Democracy Protest General field: Other Detailed field: Government / Politics
Source text - English Three prominent young leaders of Hong Kong’s democracy movement were sentenced Thursday to six to eight months in prison, a severe setback for the semiautonomous Chinese city in its struggle for greater political freedom under Communist Party rule.
Joshua Wong, the face of huge street demonstrations in 2014 for freer elections of Hong Kong’s leader, was sentenced to six months in prison. Two fellow protest leaders, Nathan Law and Alex Chow, were given eight and seven months, respectively.
The sentences risked casting the three young men as Hong Kong’s first prisoners of conscience, undermining the city’s reputation as a haven of civil liberties with special status in China.
Originally sentenced to community service and a suspended jail term, the three activists were given the prison sentences by an appeals court after the Beijing-backed local government successfully pushed for harsher punishments.

Translation - Russian В этот четверг трое заметных молодых лидеров Гонконгского демократического движения были приговорены к 6-8-ми месяцам тюрьмы. что является серьезным шагом назад для полуавтономного города в борьбе за политическую свободу во время правления Коммунистической Партии.
Джошуа Вонг, лицо крупных уличных демонстраций 2014-го года за более открытые выборы лидера Гонконга, был приговорен к шести месяцам заключения в тюрьме. Два других лидера протеста, Нэйтан Лоу и Алекс Чоу - получили восемь и семь месяцев соответственно.
Это решение делает трёх молодых людей первыми узниками совести в Гонконге, что подрывает репутацию города, как центра гражданских свобод с особым статусом в Китае.
Несмотря на то, что изначально активисты были приговорены к общественным работам и условному сроку заключения, Пекинское правительство посчитало приговор слишком мягким и подало на аппеляцию, и, в последствии, приговор был изменен.
