Picketing of the Chinese Embassy

On the 2nd of June 2009, we had a public action in front of the Chinese Embassy. This is already a traditional action of AI members all around the world. Chinese authorities still don't want to recognize the massive human rights violations and don't really want to change anything.

China has a lot of problems. A big part of human rights violations that AI is concerned about also take place in China. Like death penalty, torture, svaw, human rights defenders, internally displaced persons, poverty, economical, social rights etc.

It is very hard to make a change in China as long as the authorities don't care about human rights violations. But still for already 20 years Amnesty International organizes public actions in front of Chinese Embassies every year in almost every country.
