    Hong Kong was leased from China on a 99 year lease. The UK was required by law to return it to China, which they did.

    Unlike the Falklands!

      I’m aware of the lease versus not situation. That is not what’s being discussed.

      Whats similar in both though are the citizens situation and which nationality they wish to be, which country they wish to belong to. That’s what’s being discussed.

      Your comment is days later, and I’m just repeating myself at this point, as I’ve already stated what I just stated above before. I think we’ve all said everything we can’t say to each other.
