Reuters: Hong Kong government warns removing U.S. special status is 'double-edged sword'
HONG KONG (Reuters) - Hong Kong’s government warned Washington that withdrawing its special U.S. status, which has underpinned the city as a global financial hub, could be a “double-edged sword” and urged the United States to stop interfering in internal affairs.
The statement came as U.S. President Donald Trump is due to announce later on Friday his response to the Chinese parliament’s advancement of national security legislation for Hong Kong, which democracy activists and Western countries fear could erode the city’s freedoms.

Bottom line. The leaders of Hong Kong may like to believe that China's new national security law will not change anything, but truth be told, it will and it has.
