(Clearwisdom.net) On February 17, 2007, Russian Falun Gong practitioners gathered at the business center of Petrozavodsk, a city in northern Russia, despite the chilly weather and blizzard, to explain the facts of the Chinese Communist regime’s persecution against Falun Gong, as well as expose the vile regime’s atrocities of harvesting organs from living Falun Gong practitioners for profit to the residents of the city.

Though the temperature was very cold, local people still wanted to know about the facts of the persecution. They attentively viewed the truth-clarification display board and listened to practitioners explain the facts about the Chinese Communist regime’s persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. After learning about the persecution, they condemned the Chinese regime’s atrocities and signed the petition to support the anti-persecution activity.

After learning about the persecution, some people from nearby cities invited the Falun Gong practitioners to hold similar activities in their cities, saying that people there are very kind and would support Falun Gong. Some Chinese students passing by the scene took the initiative to ask practitioners for Chinese version truth-clarification materials and said that they would give them to their classmates.

Reporters from a local TV Station and a cable TV station also interviewed the Falun Gong practitioners.

Currently the Chinese Communist regime not only persecutes Falun Gong in China, but it also disseminates lies overseas to slander Falun Gong, aiming to extend the persecution to other countries. Russian Falun Gong practitioners’ truth-clarification activities were often interfered with in various ways. The practitioners stated that they would make good use of various opportunities to clarify the facts, and to eliminate the negative impact of the lies disseminated by the Chinese regime, so that those who were deceived by the Chinese Communist regime would be able to clearly realize the evil nature of the Chinese Communist Party.
