The 1960s was troublesome for China, with one of the worst cultural disasters (The Cultural Revolution) happening in 1966. Hong Kong was affected by the disaster, with the Leftist Riots of 1967 causing the deaths of 51 individuals. Is there any possibility that the United Kingdom went into war against China over the riots, with or without assistance of Portugal (Motim 1-2-3 happened in Portuguese Macau in 1966)? And if so, can NATO avoid being dragged into such a war? What could be the consequences of such a war?
And even if no war happened, was it possible that Hong Kong ended up purging leftists?
