(Minghui.org) Falun Gong practitioners held a three-day event in Helsinki, Finland to commemorate 15 years of peaceful resistance to the persecution in China. They also held a signature drive to offer locals an opportunity to join their efforts to end the persecution, in particular the state-sanctioned organ harvesting in China.
Many expressed sadness alongside the practitioners for those who were killed in the persecution. At times, crowds of supporters formed, and people had to stand in line to sign the petition.
