It’s not debatable!! There’s no reason at all to give up the 8% if they’re not losing the 92%. It’s RIGHT in line with what I said. China made it clear the lease would NOT be renewed period. Both sides understood that splitting the parts was a stupid idea. They made a treaty and gave up the land. Because they had NO OTHER OPTION. Only way the UK was keeping it was going to war. They knew that. China knew that. And if you weren’t a damned liar you’d know that. We’re done, you’re a liar and an idiot. have the last word, it won’t be read.
Why did China even sign a treaty? Landlords don’t need to negotiate an agreement when the lease is up.
You’ve never answered who held the lease?
