As a target of strategic importance for both the British and Chinese, I can't quite understand why it wouldn't have been targetted by at least a couple of Soviet sub-launched nuclear cruise missiles once the European war kicked off. It doesn't make sense that the Soviets would leave it intact when it could be of use to both their British and Chinese enemies. Of course, I didn't check the target list before posting this so HK could very well have been razed.
