I gotcha - excellent dot connecting!
FYI just listened to JohnBatchelorShow. His usual China people were extremely down, all of them speaking very concerned and worried, obviously. “The future of Hong Kong is cloudy and we have watched it deteriorate.”
IIRC there are 8million residents, and 2million of them were out protesting.
China said it doesn’t want protesting, altho it is not its call, but head of HK is a China pawn.
Am thinking China/Xi in bad mood from Trump/tariffs surely wont be helping this HK situation.
Gordon Chang reporter extraordinaire,sp or something has family in HK.
China has massed troops on the border IIRC.
