I move:
That the Senate—
- (a)
- remembers the thousands of people who were killed 20 years ago on 4 June 1989 in the Tiananmen Square massacre;
- (b)
- supports the pro-democracy and pro-human rights principles outlined in Charter 08, which has been written by prominent Chinese academics and activists; and
- (c)
- condemns the detention and interrogation of signatories to the Charter 08 by Chinese authorities, including the continued detention of acclaimed author Liu Xiaobo.
