(Clearwisdom.net) When the Minister for Foreign Affairs in France held a garden cocktail party on 13th July 2006, the Falun Dafa Association of France sent a petition to the President, Prime Minister, and Minister for Foreign Affairs. The Falun Dafa Association urged the French government to pay attention to the organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners now happening in China. They asked that France, as a democratic country, take action urgently to stop it. The independent Canadian investigation report into the atrocities was attached to the letter. The following are the contents of the letter:
Mr. Jacques Chirac, President of France,
Please allow me to ask you to pay kind attention to a human rights problem that is of extreme concern to us and other international groups.
Recently, many international media (including French newspapers Le Figaro, Le Monde, and TV station, TF1) have responded to the organ-selling in recent years in China. Their reports started from the evidence collected by the Epoch Times. The evidence exposed the secret organizations existing among hospitals, the army, jails, and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in China. The organizations harvest not only live prisoners' organs, but especially Falun Gong practitioners' organs, to make huge profits by stealing and transplanting the organs. As China's official policy, the illegal trade lets them make a profit and simultaneously eliminate the Chinese people who they are the targets for them to persecute.
One of the witnesses is the ex-wife of a doctor who harvested organs from Falun Gong practitioners. The witness is under political asylum in the USA now. She said that the value of organs from living people is higher than from dead ones. Many Falun Gong practitioners were still alive when their organs were harvested. Some were directly thrown into a corpse incinerator after the surgeries when they were still alive so that no evidence would be left. An independent investigation group in Canada composed by former director of the Asian Pacific Division of Canada's Foreign Affairs Ministry, also a former Member of Parliament, Mr. David Kilgour, and human rights lawyer David Matas, published an investigation report on 6th July. The report includes interviews of overseas witnesses who are under political asylum. Related information is attached in the letter.
Bastille Day, July 14 is France's national holiday. July 20 marks seven years since the CCP started persecuting Falun Gong. We appeal to the French government, and especially to you, Mr. President, to stop the terrible persecution. It reminds people of the most terrible days during World War II. We hope that you can condemn the barbaric act and help to put an end to it.
My Best regards,
The chairman of French Falun Dafa Association
