CIPFG比利时分团团长 让‧龙尼斯(Jan Loones)的声明

亲爱的女士们先生们,

在过去的几个月里,媒体向全世界发表了一些令人不愉快的文章。这些文章描述了在筹备即将到来的2008年奥运会过程中,中国的居民被驱逐出家园,房子被没收,农民们失去田地。每当这些人呼吁正义,“奥运需要社会安定”就被用来作为镇压他们的借口。很多人被打,被关押以及被判刑。他们的家人被迫害致死。

中国政府做过一些关于减轻对国内外新闻控制的承诺。却几乎见不到成效。举个例子,外国媒体经常被拒绝介入一些敏感事件(不久以前,美联社被拒绝参与报导一个环保活动家的事件)。

另外,中国政府对于藏人、维吾尔团体以及法轮功的迫害到现在已经持续很多年了。法轮功学员遭受的可能是最严重的迫害:活体摘除法轮功学员器官的非法贸易。这类事件可能正大规模的发生。数以千计的法轮功学员正被关进劳教所、监狱等等。正式渠道统计数字表明有超过3000多人被迫害致死。据中国当局内部人士透露,真实数据应该比这还要高很多。

我担心把奥林匹克的举办权授予中国,这会在中国形成一个持续侵犯人权的局面。许多中国人认为这才是真正的灾难。我们不能忘记,在把奥运会的举办权授予中国时,他们许诺要改善中国的人权问题。不难想像他们有着这样的念头:“国际组织整体上对这些暴行没有什么反应,相反,外国公司一直在我们国家投资,而且我们还被授予了奥林匹克的举办权。”

这就是我一直很担心的原因:我们西方国家不去批评中国,等的时间越长,越只是注重与中国这个所谓新的“前程远大的大陆”做生意赚钱,这样中国的人权问题就永远不会得到重视。

奥运会只能给共产党带来好处。而对于中国人民,甚至于连任何形式的民主都没有。我们不禁要问,奥林匹克的目的到底是什么呢?

不幸的是,似曾相识的故事令我回想起了1936年的奥林匹克。 那个时候希特勒之所以举办奥运就是想用它来粉饰自己的政权,而不是想为大众造福。

我也获悉已经有11000中国人支持举办人权圣火活动。对于这件事,我只想支持喝采。这个政府毁了几百万人的生命,还想用奥运去粉饰他们自己对权利的贪欲,它不配成为奥运的主办国。

很遗憾今天我不能到场和你们在一起,但是我祝愿人权圣火活动在柏林、慕尼黑、比利时、布鲁塞尔、安特卫普、奥斯坦得、圣尼古拉斯 取得圆满成功。

Statement of the Chairman of the Belgian delegation of the CIPFG

Dear madams and sirs,

The last couple of months media publicized worldwide some harrowing articles about Chinese citizens who are being evicted from their houses, who were expropriated or farmers who lost their lands in preparation of the upcoming Olympic Games of 2008. With every call for justice from these people social stability for the Games was used as an excuse to suppress them. Many of them were beaten, locked up and sentenced. Family members were being persecuted until death.

There were made some promises by the Chinese regime that the restrictions on inland and foreign press would be made easier. Little is being noticed in this area. To give an example, the foreign press is regularly being refused to attend sensible cases (a while back the access was being refused to Associated Press to attend a case of an environment activist.)

In addition there is the ongoing persecution of the Tibetans for years now, the Uighur community and Falun Gong practitioners. This last group of people encounters perhaps the most serious persecution : the illegal trade of harvested organs from living Falun Gong practitioners. This practice would also be widespread. Hundreds of thousands of Falun Gong practitioners are being imprisoned in labour camps, prisons etc. Official numbers are mentioning more than 3000 people who are being killed due to the persecution. According to insiders among the Chinese state officials the real number should be much higher.

I fear that awarding the Olympic Games to the Chinese communist regime is a conformation of the constant human rights violations, which are being described as a real human rights disaster by many Chinese citizens. We can also not forget that with awarding the Chinese regime with the Olympic Games they made a promise to improve their human rights situation. It is not unimagineable that they have the following notion “The international community as a whole doesn’t react to these atrocities, on the contrary, foreign companies keep investing in our country and on top of that we are being awarded with the Olympic Games”.

That’s why I am worrying myself for some time now – and the longer the more – to the lack of criticism and mere moneymaking approach of the west and our country towards China, the new so called “promised land”, whereby it hardly ever pays attention to human rights.

These Olympic Games stress mainly the benefits of the Chinese party. For the Chinese citizens there is no single form of democracy. We can justly wonder what goal the Olympic Games aims at.

Similar stories remind me with disturbance to the Olympic Games in 1936. Back then it was Hitler who organised the Games as a glorification of his own regime, and not because it would advantage the population.

I also learnt that already 11 000 Chinese citizens are supporting this initiative of the Human Rights Torch, which I can only applaud. An authoritative communist regime that destroys the lives of millions of people and that uses the Games as a glorification for its own lust for power, doesn’t deserve to be the host of the Olympic Games.

Pitifully I cannot be there with you today, but nevertheless I wish the Human Rights Torch in Berlin,Munich, and Belgium, Brussels, Antwerp, Oostende, Sint-Niklaas great success.
