The statement said, "It is the last night of 2005. During this past year, Falun Gong practitioners in China were still subjected to inhuman persecution. Tomorrow will be the first day of 2006. We will continue to explain the facts to the public and to protest peacefully until the persecution ends. Practitioners all over the world have continued to hold peaceful protests without letup for more than six years, which has enabled more and more Chinese to learn the facts and awaken their consciences. The Epoch Times published the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party in November 2004, and numerous Chinese people have consequently learned about the CCP's evil nature and have issued statements of resignation."

The statement also mentioned that Chen Yonglin, former Chinese diplomat; Hao Fengjun, former official of Tianjin City's 610 Office; Han Guangsheng, former director of Shenyang Judicial Bureau; and Gao Zhisheng, renowned human rights lawyer, all renounced the CCP after learning about the CCP's evil nature and its crimes in the brutal persecution of Falun Gong.

The statement further pointed out, "The great tide of resignations from the CCP is irreversible. The total of documented withdrawals is near seven million. The demise of the CCP is inevitable. We wish you to recognize this fact and not to assist the CCP to commit further wrongdoing. The World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong (WOIPFG) will investigate thoroughly the related departments, organizations, and persons involved in the persecution, regardless of how long it takes. For the good of yourself and your family, don't participate in the persecution. Otherwise, you will be brought to justice for whatever wrongdoings you commit."

Finally, the practitioners called on the embassy staff to, "Renounce the evil CCP."
