On April 24, 2002, one day before the third anniversary of the April 25th peaceful appeal by Falun Dafa practitioners at the State Council Appeals Office in Beijing, China, Falun Gong practitioners in Moscow gave a letter of protest to the ambassador at the Chinese Embassy in Russia.
At 3:00 p.m. eight representatives of Russian Falun Gong practitioners gathered and did Fa Zheng Nian [a type of meditation] outside the Chinese Embassy in Moscow. Afterwards two practitioners went to the reception desk and delivered the letter to the ambassador.
The letter strongly urges Jiang's government to stop the persecution, torture and killing of Falun Gong practitioners in China, and to stop spreading lies and slander about Falun Dafa and our respected Teacher Li Hongzhi in Russia.
The staff at the reception desk, after reading the letter, did not know what to do. Trying to avoid the issue, they said that they did not know whom to give the letter to. They told us to directly call the Department of Politics and the Department of Culture. We called them. When they found out that we sought to deliver a letter of protest they were all in a panic and tried to avoid us, saying that this was not their responsibility.
Meanwhile we maintained pure thoughts and clarified the truth to the receptionists. At this time two officials stepped out. They refused to accept our letter and pushed us out of the embassy. After a while we saw one of the officials step out and yell to the Russian guards. When this official went back in, we clarified the truth to him. The guard listened to us carefully and accepted our materials and a copy of Zhuan Falun [the main text of Falun Dafa].
