The Importance of Self-Determination in Hong Kong

I think we should not omit the fact that Hong Kong used to be a colony whether you think that is a bad thing or that is an acceptable thing. All the freedom of people in Hong Kong they don't want to see Taiwan being annexed by China and we don't want another war. And I think the best way to stop a war is to stop it before it happens. We need to step up our deterrence and we need to voice our important support to Taiwan. But to put it bluntly the possibility of military confrontation over Taiwan is so dangerous for the world... It makes the fight for more democratic rights seem like relatively small beer.
