At the Milestone of 30 Years After the Tiananmen Massacre

At the Milestone of 30 Years After the Tiananmen Massacre

Party Statement

4 June 2019 (Reiwa 1)

 

It has been 30 years since the Tiananmen Massacre, in which the Chinese government quashed the democratization movement on 4 June 1989 in China. While the unusual situation – in which any discussion on and mourning for the incident is entirely banned – continues, the Chinese government has been enforcing such vigilance as internet control and banning the people who were involved in the massacre from leaving the country.

The incident, in which freedom was suppressed by violence and which symbolizes the current regime of China, should never be weathered. The Happiness Realization Party (HRP) urges the Chinese government to reveal the truth of the incident and restore the honor of the victims.

In China, human rights suppression on minority ethnic groups, such as Tibetans and Uyghurs, has become more violent. The system of oppressing its nationals, including the monitoring system, has been enforced further, not the way to democracy.

China continues to expand aggressively, applying diplomatic and military pressure especially on Taiwan. In Hong Kong, where the ‘One Country Two Systems’ is supposedly approved, political influence of the Chinese Communist Party is growing stronger. Recently in Hong Kong, the extradition of such political offenders as democratic activists to mainland China was made possible through the revision of the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance.

To stop China’s hegemonism and expansionism, as well as to make the Chinese government change its regime that suppresses human rights, are indeed the most important issues in regional security. HRP will not only work to change the legal system so that we can protect our nation by ourselves, namely by revising the Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution, but also to conduct strategic diplomacy to stop Chinese expansionism based on the Japan-U.S. alliance and the values of freedom, democracy and faith.
