Finland: TV and Newspapers Report on Practitioners' Appeal in front of the Chinese Embassy (Photos)
(Clearwisdom.net) On the weekend of 19th and 20th July, Finnish Falun Gong
practitioners held activities in Helsinki, the capital of Finland, to let people
know that it has been exactly 4 years since Jiang Zemin, former President of the
People's Republic of China, started his persecution against Falun Gong. This
persecution has claimed the lives of many victims, estimated in their thousands,
put hundreds of thousands of Chinese citizens in labor camps and prisons, and
forced millions to live without basic human rights. The source of this
persecution is Jiang Zemin, and the message after four year of such brutal
persecution is "Bring Jiang Zemin to Justice". After launching a lawsuit against
him in Chicago, Falun Gong practitioners are going to bring Jiang to justice and
expose his evil deeds to the whole world. Finnish Falun Gong practitioners held their first event next
to Helsinki railway station on Saturday 19th. With large information boards
portraying the persecution in both English and Finnish, accompanied by flyers
handed out by practitioners, the different issues regarding Falun Gong and the
persecution became known to countless passers-by. Many people stopped to read
the display boards, to talk with the practitioners, to express their support,
and to sign a petition calling for an end to the persecution and to bring Jiang
Zemin to justice. On the early morning of Sunday 20th, practitioners gathered
in the front the Chinese embassy in Helsinki to hold a day long peaceful appeal.
With banners and display boards, the practitioners attracted the interest of not
only local people, but the staff of the embassy as well. A reporter from one of
the largest TV channels in Finland came to interview the practitioners at the
embassy. Later a story about the appeal appeared in newspapers as well.
