20 years since Hong Kong returned to motherland
July 1 marked the 20th anniversary of Hong Kong's return to China and the establishment of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.
President Xi visited Hong Kong for celebrations and attended the inauguration of the fifth-term government of the HKSAR.
Xi reviewed the success of the "one country, two systems" principle — which allows Hong Kong to retain its capitalist system after the return — saying it offers a new way of thinking and a new formula for the international community in addressing similar issues.
