On 21st May 2020, the Chinese Government proposed a new law on national security regulations that may be enacted in Hong Kong under the provisions of Annex III of its Basic law, which is the city’s de facto constitution.

When Hong Kong was handed back to China on 1 July 1997, following more than 150 years of British control, the “one country, two systems” principle was established as the foundation of the relationship.
