China warns of countermeasures after UK's decision to extend citizenship rights to Hongkongers in light of Beijing's new security law

The Chinese embassy said the people in Hong Kong were Chinese nationals as well.

Beijing has never publicly raised the possibility of offering Britons either Chinese citizenship or broader residence rights. Critics – including Britain – say the new law demolishes that deal, especially as China says it will have jurisdiction over some cases and has empowered its security agents to operate openly inside Hong Kong for the first time.Britain had sought closer relations with China after ending its decades-long membership in the European Union this year.

UK media said the Foreign Office summoned the Chinese ambassador to London on Wednesday to express its concerns about the law.
