China has effectively illegally annexed Hong Kong
Or: Legally taken control of Hong Kong prematurely.
I'm not defending China, but, at the proverbial end of the day, Hong Kong's fate and new found status is an inevitability.
America doing now what she would likely have done in thirty years anyway does little more than equally prematurely accept that.
I expect China will do little more than shrug.
