French Falun Dafa Association Invited to the Senate for a Press Conference with NGOs and VIPs (Photos)


(Clearwisdom.net, February 2, 2004) On January 14, the French Falun Dafa Association was invited to the Senate in Paris for a press conference on human rights in China. Among the guests were Former Minister of Education Jack Lang, Amnesty International, Reporters Without Borders, ECPM (Together Against Capital Punishment), France Tibet and Chinese dissidents.

National radio stations, newspapers and press agencies crowded the room, and some people had to stand at the door. Each NGO gave specific information on the catastrophic situation of human rights in China.

A Falun Gong practitioner revealed to the audience and media how Jiang Zemin's regime put pressure on the French authorities to exclude Falun Gong from the Chinese New Year activities, in an attempt to extend their persecution outside of China.

After the conference was over, several radio stations interviewed the French Falun Gong Association. Jane Dai from Australia, whose husband was tortured to death in China, as well as Chen Ying from France, were all able to give direct accounts of the persecution by the Jiang regime.
