This kind logic sounds similar,they make you to focus how the village become a modern city,forgot the fact that they robbed the Hongkong from the beginning. They make you focus on Chinese government is not good, forgot the fact that doesn't matter good or bad, it's not other countries businesses, I guess they knew that,that's why they used the beautiful concept" democracy and freedom" so well when they want to invade another country, smart but Insidious。

Technically the National Security Law didn’t break the agreement between the British and China. The agreement allowed a national security law to be passed which Hong Kong delayed for several years. And don’t forget the agreement was only for 50 years so in 2047 China can do whatever it wants with Hong Kong. Surprisingly officials in Beijing have said that they are willing to extend Hong Kong’s independence beyond 2047. It seems a stable Hong Kong is still in China’s best interest.

Britain never wanted to give up Hong Kong but China would have marched it's military in by force then there would have been a war and so close to China it wasn't a war we could sustain but the primary reason if not the only reason was the 99year lease.

"Britain has long since known that the Hong Kong people know what is best for Hong Kong" Which is exactly why we didn't ask the people of Hong Kong and why the CCP has been allowed to walk all over Hong Kong, removing their rights bit by bit and spitting on the "one country, two systems" model.
