Hong Kong is in a tight spot. Extradition treaties with say, The US and Spain are between two sovereign states. Independent separate entities. Since 1997 Hong Kong IS a part of China. “One China, two systems.” Pushing for this law is essentially breaking down that “two systems” brick by brick and losing self governing, falling completely under China’s iron fist. To not fight this, the slippery slope becomes a slippery cliff.
RE: Since 1997 Hong Kong IS a part of China. “One China, two systems.”
I believe China only promised the “One China, Two Systems” for 50 years. This means the whole thing ends in 2047.
