Germany: Chinese Prime Minister Visits Germany

On the morning of January 29th, when Chinese Prime Minister Wen Jiabao’s motorcade passed by German Prime Minister’s office mansion, Wen personally saw Falun Gong practitioners who stood several meters from him displaying banners.

Practitioners protested the Chinese Communist Regime’s persecution outside German Prime Minister’s Office Mansion

Practitioners rallied at the Brandenburg Gate to protest the persecution

According to practitioner Ms. Zhen, as the protest spot allocated to the practitioners by German police was right by the street and Wen’s motorcade passed by slowly, Wen was just a few meters from the practitioners. Ms. Li was displaying a banner which read “Bring Zhou Yongkang to Justice”, and she clearly saw Wen turn his head and look in her direction. Li traveled the whole night by train to participate in the protest.

The practitioners displayed banners calling for the ringleaders of the persecution, including Jiang Zemin, Zhou Yongkang, Liu Jing and Luo Gan, to be brought to justice and to call on the Chinese Communist regime to end the persecution of Falun Gong.

Ms. Li stressed, “We are not here to protest Wen’s visit. We are asking him to bring the ringleaders of the persecution to justice.”

The end of January in Berlin is still very cold, and police officers on duty would go back to their vehicle to get warm after standing outside for about one hour. The practitioners’ protest at the Prime Minister Mansion started at 10 am and ended 2:30pm. The practitioners then held another protest at the Brandenburg Gate from 4 to 7 pm.

A police office said that he admired “the persistence of Falun Gong practitioners.”
