Chinese Democratic Party in the USA Took Fast Actions in Washington DC

-- Reported by Shi Shan, Radio Free Asia

2019-02-19

Some members of the Chinese Democracy Party who live in the United States conducted a series of fast actions in the US Capital of Washington, DC on February 19 to protest against the tyranny imposed by the Chinese government on the Chinese. They also called on the US government to exert greater pressure on China.

More than 100 members of the Chinese Democracy Party from the East Coast region began a full day of gatherings and protests in the square in front of the US Capitol on the morning of the 19th. The organizers said that the action was to support the Chinese people's anti-violence actions toward the Communist regime and to highlight the Chinese Democratic Party's philosophy.

Dr. Wang Juntao, head of the China Democracy Party, said that the activities on the 19th included a series of fast protests in front of the US Capitol, the State Department and the White House, and the Chinese Embassy in the USA.

"Today is the 15th of the first month of the Chinese Lunar New Year. First, we are paying respect to the prisoners of conscience and political prisoners in China. Second, we protest to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and support the Chinese people's struggle against the Communist tyranny. Third we ask the US government to remove the CCP's power in the United States."

Most of the people who attended the rallies came from the eastern United States. Many people drove for hours and arrived in Washington in the early hours of the morning.

Wang Juntao said that in recent years, the Chinese government has been suppressing the Chinese people more and more. The human rights situation in China is getting worse while the resistance of the people is also increasing.

"This afternoon, our two teams will meet in front of the Chinese Embassy to protest, and then bring flower wreaths to the Victims of Communism Memorial to commemorate the Chinese who were persecuted in the past 70 years (under the Communist reign)."

When the members of the Chinese Democracy Party called out their slogans at the rally, they pointed to the sky with their middle three fingers in their right hand. Wang Juntao said that the three fingers represent democracy, freedom, and the rule of law, while pointing to the sky represents freedom from fear and unity.

The 19th is also the date of a new round of US-China trade negotiations.

Wei Jingsheng, the famous Chinese dissident in the USA, expressed his support at the scene. He expressed his support for the US trade actions against China and reminded the US government to be alert to the CCP's agents and representatives in the United States.

"Not only Chinese, but many Americans are also serving the Communist regime and helping the CCP to solve its problems. So we must pay attention to this issue and ask the US government to remove the influence of the Communist regime."

The organizers of the action said that they would continue their protest rally in front of the Chinese Embassy in the afternoon and also bring flowers and pay tribute to the Chinese who were persecuted by the Communist regime in front of the Victims of Communism Monument in the evening.

旅美中国民主党华盛顿快闪行动

--自由亚洲电台石山报道

2019-02-19

旅居美国的部分中国民主党成员，2月19日在美国首都华盛顿进行了系列快闪行动，抗议中国政府对民众实行的暴政，也呼吁美国政府向中国施加更大压力。

一百多名来自美东地区的中国民主党成员，19日上午在美国国会前的广场，开始一整天的集会和抗议行动。行动组织者表示，该行动是为了声援中国民众的抗暴，以及彰显中国民主党的理念。

中国民主党负责人王军涛博士介绍说，19日的活动包括一系列的快闪集会，地点分别在美国国会、国务院和白宫，以及中国大使馆门前。

"今天是正月十五，我们一是向被关押的良心犯政治犯拜年；二是向中共抗议，支持中国民众反对中共暴政的斗争；三是要求美国政府清除中共在美国的势力。"

大部分参加集会的人来自美国东部地区，不少人驾车数小时，凌晨才抵达华盛顿。

王军涛表示，近年来中国政府在镇压民众方面越走越远，中国的人权状况日趋恶化，民众的反抗也正在形成规模。

"今天下午，我们两队会合，去中国大使馆抗议，然后去共产主义受害者纪念碑献花圈，纪念七十年来被迫害的中国人。"

集会的中国民主党人在呼口号时，以右手三个指头指向天空。王军涛介绍说，三个指头分别代表民主、自由和法制，指向天空则代表摆脱恐惧和团结。

19日，也是新一轮美中贸易谈判之日。

旅美中国著名异议人士魏京生到现场表示支持，他表示支持美国对中国采取贸易行动，也提醒美国政府警惕中共在美国的代理人和特务。

"不光是中国人，很多美国人也在为中共服务，帮他们解套。所以我们一定要注意这个问题，要求美国政府清除共产党的势力。"

行动组织者介绍说，快闪集会当天下午也会到中国驻美国大使馆门前进行抗议，并在傍晚到共产主义受害者纪念碑前，向受到中共迫害的中国人献花和表达敬意。
