Popular Post Thechook Posted July 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2020 Don't worry Britain, you aren't alone. China is very angry with Australia also for speaking out about Hong Kong and the threats are coming thick and strong. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We want to be your partner. But if you want to make China a hostile country, you will have to bear the consequences,” he said.

Popular Post Henryford Posted July 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2020 Hong Kong was doomed from 1997. I am surprised it took the CCP this long to enslave them. The world should have nothing to do with China. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ardent communist denies everything wrong the Chinese have done, then accuses Britain of interfering in Chinese Politics, after China breaking the Hongkong agreement, and other things. Then threatens trade, like they said to Australia. Its time for the world to take note, and start Cutting China off, its only the big business conglomerates who are pushing for trade in China, Pure greed, It's time they cut their losses and got out. If they don't listen then its up to all of us, NOT TO BUY CHINESE. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libai Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 On December 19, 1984, after years of negotiations, British and Chinese leaders signed a formal pact approving the 1997 turnover of the colony in exchange for the formulation of a “one country, two systems” policy by China’s communist government. Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher called the agreement “a landmark in the life of the territory, in the course of Anglo-Chinese relations, and in the history of international diplomacy.” Hu Yaobang, the Chinese Communist Party’s secretary-general, called the signing “a red-letter day, an occasion of great joy” for China’s one billion people. At midnight on July 1, 1997, Hong Kong was peaceably handed over to China in a ceremony attended by numerous international dignitaries, including British Prime Minister Tony Blair, Prince Charles, Chinese President Jiang Zemin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China never spent years crawling from the ground, they spent years stealing, borrowing and copying Western Technology, now we are foolishly buying it back just because its cheap. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What it details are separate instances of the PRC acting badly and this or that country reacting (to various degrees). There is little by way of international unity or organization to these responses. More like wishful thinking. Not surprising given the author. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can keep saying that, doesn't make it into any coherent or efficient construct/effort. I'm not against any such initiatives, I'm just saying that so far it's mostly futile gestures or isolated incidents of resistance. Also I don't think the PRC is very much "communist" these days, authoritarian yes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
