"I think there are a couple of red lines that haven't been crossed yet [in Hong Kong]," said Stavridis, now an advisor at The Carlyle Group, focusing on geopolitical and national security issues.
One red line would be shifting the focus of the demonstrations from responding to the extradition bill to demanding more autonomy. According to Stavridis, crossing this line would signal a "philosophical turn" in the protest. The second red line would be the protest turning physically violent against the Hong Kong government.
If there is a crossing of any of the red lines in the near future, Stavridis said, "it would reduce the ability to execute [a] trade deal [between U.S. and China]."

China is not bother at all to do trade deal with US. HKG protest is another irrelevant events.

the united states should arm hong kong. but hong kong doesn't have oil or gas pipe lines so it won't happen.
