What city in the USSR was equivalent to Hong Kong? I am not aware of any cities in the USSR that enjoyed freedom of the press and an independent judiciary at the level that Hong Kong did prior to the NSL crackdowns.

Everything outside of China is an evil conspiracy to rid the Chinese of their beloved amazing government that is supported by 120% approval rating.
