Hong Kong its future and in current problems is
one of the top priorities of British foreign policy, and
has been one of the main items on my personal agenda
since I became Foreign Secretary six years ago. Hong
Kong's destiny does not lie totally in our hands. Its
future beyond 1997 reflects the facts of its history and
geography. But Britain's commitment to Hong Kong and its
people is resolute and unchanged. In spite of all that
has happened in recent weeks, the British government
remain determined to build on the foundation of what has
already been achieved and to maintain the Hong Kong
success stroy. With a steady nerve and a determination
to succeed, I have every confidence that we shall achieve
this.
