Swedish People Show Their Support to Practitioners' SOS-Walk

Reported by Swedish Falun Gong practitioner

On July 12, the Swedish Falun Gong practitioners started a SOS-walk to highlight the brutal persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China and clarify the truth to the public. At 11:15 a.m., the walk started from a city called Falun. After the border of the city, 16 practitioners from the ages of 19 to 63 continued this 7-day-walk and will end up in Stockholm on of July 18.

Swedish radio, Finnish radio and local newspapers covered this event. To avoid the noise of the traffic on the road, one of the interviews was done in the forest.

By the time when this report was written, at 7:45 p.m., they have already covered 27 kilometers and were still walking. People on the street and in cars were very positive. They showed their support to the practitioners by applauding, giving them thumbs-up and friendly honking their car horn. The weather was a bit rainy at first, but soon got better.
