Italy: Falun Gong Practitioners Commemorate April 25th Appeal and Call for an End to Persecution

On April 25 2009, Falun Dafa practitioners from all over Italy went to the Chinese embassy and various famous tourist sites and held commemorative activities related to the "April 25" Appeal. They called on people from all walks of life to help stop the CCP's persecution of Falun Gong.

At 10:00 a.m., practitioners from Rome sat in front of the embassy to protest the crimes committed in the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners over the last decade. In Italian and Chinese, respectively, a press release was read regarding the tenth anniversary of the "April 25" peaceful appeal, solemnly warning the CCP that it cannot escape culpability. The press release urged people to separate themselves from the Chinese Communist organisations.

At a famous tourist attraction in Milan on Via Dante Street, which was named after the great poet Dante, groups of tourists stopped in front of the Falun Gong information desk. They were attracted by the beautiful and graceful movements of the Falun Gong exercises. After they learned about the CCP's brutal persecution of Falun Gong, they were touched by the peacefulness and diligence of the practitioners. Many tourists signed the petition to support Falun Gong and condemn the CCP's atrocities.
