HONG KONG — In an apparent concession to authorities warning pro-democracy protesters to clear Hong Kong‘s streets by the beginning of the work week, students occupying the area outside city government headquarters agreed Sunday to remove some barricades that have blocked the building’s entrance during the weeklong demonstrations.


But it was not immediately clear how significant the move was, and how much it would defuse the standoff, with many protesters vowing to stay in the area. The partial withdrawal also appeared to be part of a strategy to regroup in another part of town.
