Austria's Greens Request Minister of Health to Address Human Rights Violations in China

(Clearwisdom.net) In a press release on April 26, 2006, Austria's Greens asked Rauch-Kallat [Maria Rauch-Kallat, Federal Minister for Health and Women in Austria] to address human rights violations in China - especially concerning organ harvesting in Chinese slave labor camps.

"Reliable sources report of secret Chinese death camps, where thousands of so-called 'enemies' of the [Chinese Communist] regime, such as Falun Gong practitioners, are being held for one reason only - to steal their organs for international organ trade. The most dramatic happening in this is that the organs are taken from alive and healthy people," said the health official of the Grünen [Greens], Kurt Grünewald.

The Chinese Ministry of Health has decreed that starting on July 1, 2006, such practices may become illegal - up to a point. However the greatest concern is that the Chinese regime will destroy all evidence before July 1, the date when this decree takes effect. "Given that [concern], organ transplants have increased manifold in China during the past weeks. Included in the above is that Chinese psychiatric clinics are also being used to re-educate so-called 'enemies of the State,'" said Grünewald

During the present meeting of the European Union (EU) Ministers of Health in Vienna, the Chinese Minister of Health is also present. Therefore, Grünewald asked that Rauch-Kallat address human rights violations with her Chinese counterpart. "We ask that Minister Rauch-Kallat, and the media coalition, non-profits and lawyers, who are interested in finding the truth, support this effort. Human lives will be saved the faster an investigation is ordered," said Grünewald
