Well, that was probably what China was saying when they ditched the agreement they had with Britain.

China has grown large and powerful. If history matters, Hong Kong is probably part of China. If history doesn't matter, Hong Kong is part of China.

I think the real question here is what was possible for Hong Kong vs. what actually happened. Riots were maybe not the best strategy, in hindsight.

Has any strategy ever worked with the CCP?
