Britain yields on Chinese troop entry into Hong Kong
Britain reversed itself and agreed to allow 509 Chinese troops into Hong Kong three hours before the July 1 handover. The troops will enter in 39 vehicles at 9 p.m. June 30, as Beijing deploys up to 10,000 PLA troops to symbolize sovereignty. The deal ends a stalemate amid a week of rhetoric and preparations for the transfer of defense duties.
