A: e Human Rights In China

The Prime Minister has taken a direct and

personal interest in the situation of human rights

in China, raising issues at his meetings with

Chinese leaders concerning human rights and the

cases of specific individuals. We would like to

take the opportunity to thank the Prime Minister for

all he has done in this regard. We would also

stress the importance of following up these matters,

particularly the individual cases, and taking every

opportunity to raise human rights issues with

Chinese officials.
