Hong Kong’s chief executive said her government is prepared to use police to “stamp out” violent protests — two days after a weekend of tumultuous demonstrations led to the arrests of 86 people.

“If violence continues, the only thing that we should do is to stamp out that violence through law enforcement actions,” Carrie Lam told reporters Tuesday.

“We want to put an end to the chaotic situation in Hong Kong through law enforcement and so on. At the same time, we will not give up on building a platform for dialogue.”

Pro-democracy protesters clashed with police last weekend, with one officer even firing a warning shot after demonstrators bearing weapons charged at them.

Twenty-one officers were injured in the mayhem.

In the face of the weekend violence, a reporter asked if Lam felt she had “lost control” of the territory — and if the leader ever considered stepping down since the protests erupted 12 weeks ago.

“I think a responsible chief executive at this point in time should continue to hold the fort and do her utmost to restore law and order in Hong Kong,” responded Lam.

“I remain committed to serving the people of Hong Kong with humility.”

The pro-democracy protests began over opposition to a since-suspended extradition bill, which would have enabled the country’s criminal suspects to be extradited to mainland China for trial.

The demonstrations, which had been largely peaceful, have morphed into a broader call for more democracy in the Chinese-ruled territory.
