(Minghui.org) Falun Gong practitioners residing in the city of Brasov carried out activities which raised awareness among people about the persecution of Falun Gong, aka Falun Dafa, practitioners. The persecution has been ongoing in China for over 23 years.
The celebration of Romania’s National Day brought many visitors to Brasov on December 1, 2022. There were crowds of people at the Christmas Fair on Brasov’s Council Square. The peaceful and harmonious music, as well as the brochures, calendars, bookmarks, and lotus flowers, invited people to reflect on kindness, compassion, especially since it was close to Christmas.

Signing Petition Against the Persecution in China
Practitioners in Brasov used the occasion to tell people about the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) state-sanctioned organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners. People’s reaction to the news was swift, as they signed the petition to the Romanian President calling for an immediate end to the organ harvesting.
Ms. Koseva and Ms. Palige, Bulgarian nationals working in Bucharest, said that they remembered the Falun Dafa booth and similar activities they had seen in the Netherlands. Both went to the booth, and said that they wanted to help bring an end to the CCP’s organ harvesting by signing the petition.
“It is inhumane to remove people’s organs simply because they want to participate in a spiritual practice,” said Ms. Koseva. “How could you do this to retaliate against a practice that is so peaceful and beneficial to people?”
Before they left, they had a group photo and thanked the practitioners for what they were doing and wished them continued success.
