Fifteen years ago on July 20, 1999, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) launched a genocidal campaign against some 70 to 100 million Falun Gong practitioners in China—a campaign that continues unabated today.

To mark the practitioners' peaceful resistance against the persecution, Falun Gong practitioners all over Europe held a series of activities around July 20th.

During the events, the practitioners informed people of the goodness of Falun Gong while raising awareness of the brutal persecution of Falun Gong, especially the CCP's systematic and state sanctioned forced organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners. They called for help to end this crime against humanity.

Falun Gong practitioners held a rally on July 20 in front of the Eiffel Tower to honour their fellow practitioners who lost their lives under persecution in China. Tourists watched practitioners demonstrate the Falun Gong exercises, read the informational display boards and signed a petition calling for an end to the CCP's state-sanctioned crime of harvesting organs from living Falun Gong practitioners.
