Hong Kong Protesters Agree to Talks with Government 
----------------------------------------------------


 
Pro-democracy leaders in Hong Kong have agreed to talks with the city's
top leader after days of mass protest. Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying
has refused to step down, despite vows by protesters to remain in the
streets and occupy government buildings unless he does so. The protests
erupted over China's plan to select candidates in Hong Kong's 2017
elections.
