Wei
Jingsheng Invited to Speak at the Joint Press Conference of the US
Congressional Human Rights Caucus and the U.S. Commission on International
Religious Freedom
On
July 30, 2008, Mr. Wei Jingsheng was invited to speak at the joint press
conference of the US Congressional Human Rights Caucus and the U.S. Commission
on International Religious Freedom, which presented human rights issues
including religious freedom concerns in the People's Republic of China.
The
press conference was held in room HC-7 of the Capitol building. Co-chair of the caucus James P.
McGovern hosted the meeting.
Several Congressional members participated in the conference, as well as
several members of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, and
some other prominent Chinese human rights activists who also met with President
Bush on the previous day, namely Harry Wu and Rebiya Kadeer.
In
his speech, Mr. Wei recalled his meeting with President Bush when he expressed
his objection to the President's going to the Beijing Olympics, a sure action
supporting the Chinese Communist tyrannous government. Once again, he emphasized and strongly
urged that the President must keep talking about human rights in China as he
promised to them in the meeting, should he go to Beijing.
Several
Chinese and English news media interviewed Mr. Wei afterwards, including Radio
Free Asia Cantonese service. The
interview is available at:

魏京生应邀参加美国国会人权小组及美国国际宗教自由委员会共同主办的新闻发布会
2008年7月30日，魏京生应邀参加美国国会人权小组及美国国际宗教自由委员会共同主办的，有关中国包括宗教自由在内的人权问题的新闻发布会
新闻发布会在国会主楼HC-7举行，由国会人权小组的共同主席詹姆斯﹒麦克高文主持。若干个国会议员及美国国际宗教自由委员会的成员参加了新闻发布会。其他刚与布什总统见过面的人权活动家吴弘达和热比娅也受邀出席并发言。
魏京生先生回忆了他对布什总统指出总统先生出席北京奥运会是个错误。“因为无论你们怎样解释这件事，中国政府都会把它解释成是对共产党专制政权的支持。这会给中国人民造成很大的误解，破坏美国在中国人心目中的形象。如果总统先生一定要去，我建议总统先生利用各种机会发出明确的信息，关注中国的民主和自由。”
会议结束后，若干个中英媒体采访了魏先生，其中包括自由亚洲电台粤语部的记者。相关录音采访可在以下连接上听到：
