• Speech by John Bowis MEP at a Falun Gong Press Conference in Strasbourg

  2003-12-23
  "What was clear was that in its early days, the Chinese authorities actually encouraged it. It was seen as something not threatening; it was seen as something healthy that contributed to the wellbeing of people. And then they got cold feet, and thought that perhaps this was leading to some self-expression that went beyond the wishes of the regime. I think that was very sad. Because China is a very big country, to be part of a country, it does not need to suppress the instincts and wishes of individuals and groups and minorities."

• EFGIC Press Release: Jiang Zemin and “the Real Axis of Evil”

  2003-12-21
  Topping Amnesty International’s list of human rights “scoundrels,” clearly Jiang’s crimes place him along side Hussein, Milosevic, Pinochet and other “least wanted.” Yet, with so much evidence stacked against him, why does Jiang still present a challenge to international rule of law whose statutes are so clear on these issues?
