I’m literally conversing with some nutcase geriatric shut-in in a double wide, aren’t I?
Because you seriously sound like some wing nut in front of a shortwave radio at this pioint.
“Your response here shows you can not counter with anything”
You haven’t PUT UP anything! What? Stuff like this?
“The 99 year lease was not signed with the Revolutionary opposition forces of Chairman Mao, it was signed with the legitimate previous government of China.”
Which means squat as the UK recognized Mao’s China as the legit government, which means all treaties and agreements flowed to them, not the government in Taiwan?
The 99-year lease for the New Territories ran out, the PRC did not want a renewal. The UK under Thatcher negotiated to return it, and Hong Kong island (which they were not treaty-bound to do) because it would be impossible to hold it without access to the infrastructure of the New Territories, not to mention that it was hard enough to hold onto the Falklands let along a distant colony that shared a mainland border with China. They got the best they could, and that is a 50 year agreement for HK to have a separate system from the mainland.
There are no “tricks” to it, nor are there any loopholes where HK is going to magically become independent or revert to the UK. Sorry if that hurts your feelings
Now tell me what the hell have I said that is factually incorrect? I got my information from “The Fall of Hong Kong: China’s Triumph & Britain’s Betrayal”, a book right in front of me.
But I suppose I’m REALLY some “Chi Com propagandist” KNOWN to all....I’m sure all spelled-out in a dossier you purchased from Fusion GPS, right?
Jesus, there is nothing more annoying than when people on FR sound no different than some retard leftist on Reddit.
Again. Bluster and insult. It’s all you have.
But ignorant of the actual basis for the handover.
Again, you are repeating empty Chinese Communist narrative.
