2020-10-01 | Opinion | Hong Kong Is China, Like It or Not - The New York Times
'But the Hong Kong government has no power to ask any other jurisdiction not to deal with Hong Kong residents in accordance with its own laws simply because those people are from Hong Kong. '
'From Beijing’s point of view, democratic development in Hong Kong has brought about nothing but chaos, polarization and anti-China sentiment. '
'At least one of them had been arrested in Hong Kong under the national security law. '
'Under the Basic Law, Hong Kong is a special administrative region that enjoys a “high degree of autonomy” — which, by definition, means not complete autonomy, a point I labor to explain to foreign officials and politicians. '
'To some, the new national security law is especially chilling because it seems simultaneously vague and very severe. '
