Hong Kong could be the hapless spark in a much bigger political conflagration, writes GinaChon.
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on May 27 certified to Congress that Hong Kong is no longer autonomous from China.
Pompeo said Hong Kong does not deserve special treatment under U.S. laws, which provide trade and travel exceptions for the area."No reasonable person can assert today that Hong Kong maintains a high degree of autonomy from China, given facts on the ground," Pompeo said in a statement. China has proposed a new national security law for Hong Kong, targeting acts of secession, subversion of state power, terrorism and foreign interference.
