The Chinese Embassy in the Netherlands and the "Patriotic Overseas Chinese Association" jointly held a Spring Festival Gala, during which programs such as "Xinjiang Dance" were arranged, which was personally blessed by the mayor of The Hague. Some protesters took the opportunity to ask CCP Ambassador Tan Jian "when will the overseas illegal police stations be shut down." Tan Jian fled hastily, and the protesters were subsequently driven away. The Uyghur representative accused the CCP of using activities to cover up the truth of the genocide. Protesters have criticized the West for being insufficiently alert to CCP infiltration.
Last Saturday (21st), the Chinese embassy in the Netherlands and dozens of "patriotic overseas Chinese groups" jointly organized the Spring Festival Gala at the Hague City Hall. Wait impressively. There were also performances such as lion dance, dragon dance, and Chinese Kung Fu. Tan Jian, the Chinese ambassador to the Netherlands, and Jan van Zanen, the mayor of The Hague, jointly decorated the eyes of the dragon and lion dance.
Outside the lens of the CCP’s official media, several people held anti-CCP demonstrations outside the Hague City Hall. They distributed to the audience pictures and materials of the CCP’s overseas police station and the CCP’s arrest of the “White Paper Movement” activists, and played the song “ Do you hear the people sing".
When CCP ambassador Tan Jian appeared, Wang Jingyu, a Chinese dissident in exile in the Netherlands, asked him loudly, "When will the CCP's overseas police station be closed?" Tan Jian put away his smile and left in a hurry. His followers stopped the protesters from taking pictures and called the police.
Wang Jingyu said: After I saw Tan Jian, the CCP ambassador to the Netherlands, I went up to him and asked him, "When will the police station illegally established by the CCP in a democratic country be closed?". He ran away in a hurry, his followers were very arrogant, they were not allowed to take pictures, and asked me to go out immediately and started to call the police... I also refuted, I said that this is a public area, and I have the Dutch government to give me The document allows me to protest here; there is a man wearing glasses and holding a camera, who is still threatening me, saying that the police will detain me in a while.
Wang Jingyu said that the Chinese personnel asked the two Dutch policemen present to prevent the protesters from entering the city hall of The Hague. The Dutch police cooperated with China's expulsion activities, and once drove the protesters out of the city hall in disregard of the protest approval documents, they were not allowed to protest outside the venue. After the protesters fought hard, the protest continued for several hours outside the venue. Wang Jingyu pointed out that Chinese security personnel went outside to film protesters and threatened them. According to the introduction of the local Chinese-language newspaper Sino-Dutch Business Daily, the consulate also set up a "Security Department" for the Spring Festival celebrations. Wang Jingyu believes that the situation reflects that the CCP's "cross-border law enforcement" issue has not attracted enough attention. He criticized the mayor of The Hague for supporting the Chinese embassy and the patriotic overseas Chinese group's party, and the behavior of the Dutch police in cooperating with the Chinese side was absurd.
Wang Jingyu said: The CCP has set up a security team in the city hall of a democratic country, and this organization is responsible for identifying, monitoring, and expulsing dissidents. This must violate Dutch law. This is a complete provocation to the sovereignty of the Netherlands. This thing is extremely absurd. After the CCP opened an illegal police station in the Netherlands and the CCP’s atrocities against Uighurs and other ethnic minorities were exposed, the mayor of The Hague still allowed the CCP embassy to host the so-called Spring Festival Gala in the city hall of The Hague, which also reflects the support of the CCP from the Hague authorities. , very unacceptable.
Mr. Liu, a Dutch native, stopped briefly in front of the protest poster, and was identified by the CCP security personnel as an "accomplice" of the protesters, and asked the Dutch police to drive him away from the party. In an interview with this station, Mr. Liu told the story of the incident. He was angry at the deprivation of his personal rights.
Mr. Liu said: I stood there for 20 seconds, and then I went in to watch the show, and then the police asked me to go out, took pictures of my ID, and warned me not to go in again; there should be people from the Chinese embassy Candidly filmed outside, took photos of us, and then instructed the Dutch police, which violated my legal right to watch the show. I think this is the Dutch government condoning them.
World Uyghur Congress spokesman Dilixati told this station that the Netherlands has determined that the CCP has committed genocide against the Uyghurs. The CCP intends to arrange the "Xinjiang Dance" program during the Spring Festival performance. .
Dilixiati said: As the Netherlands, it also recognizes the CCP’s genocide against Uyghurs. Then the Chinese government's embassy in the Netherlands used this method to release a lie to the Netherlands that "Uyghurs seem to be living a happy life", with sinister intentions to cover up the facts. Once again, we call for a high degree of awareness that these pro-communist associations, including all activities manipulated by the CCP government, should be banned.
In response to the criticism, The Hague City Hall said in response to a reporter's interview that it needed to know whether the protesters had registered for the event.
Calls made by our station to Tan Jian's secretary, the political section of the Chinese embassy in the Netherlands, and the office were not connected.
