On 19 December 1984, British prime minister Margaret Thatcher signed the Sino-British Joint Declaration on Hong Kong, a historic agreement providing for the transfer of Hong Kong to Chinese rule and establishing the conditions under which it was to be governed after 1 July 1997. Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping, standing beside UK foreign secretary Geoffrey Howe, looked on as Thatcher and her Chinese counterpart, Zhao Ziyang, added their signatures to the declaration. Deng Xiaoping is credited with having developed the agreement's foundational concept of "one country, two systems", under which Hong Kong would maintain economic and administrative autonomy as part of the Chinese nation.
