On the 3rd, the day before the 34th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square Massacre, a woman was arrested by authorities in Beijing, China, after holding a one-man protest waving the American flag, the American flag.

According to the Hong Kong Myungbo, a woman suddenly climbed up an outdoor structure at the National Sports Complex, where the Beijing Winter and Summer Olympics were held, and held a one-person protest waving an American flag and a banner.

The woman is also known to have distributed flyers saying, “China should become a truly liberal democracy that embraces the world. It should not be a place you want to escape from, but a country that everyone wants to come to.”

In response, two people who appeared to be authorities hurriedly climbed up the structure, subdued the woman, and took away the American flag.

It is still unknown who this woman is and how she was treated after the one-person protest.

Chinese authorities have strengthened security around Tiananmen as well as throughout Beijing to prevent memorial demonstrations or banner demonstrations that could suddenly occur around the 34th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square Incident.

In particular, censorship and control have been strengthened to prevent the atmosphere of remembrance from spreading to dissatisfaction with the regime, such as signs on an overpass where a banner criticizing President Xi Jinping was hung in October of last year has recently disappeared without a trace and cannot be searched for on the map app.

In addition, Hong Kong’s Victoria Park, where a candlelight vigil was held every year for the victims of the Tiananmen Square massacre for 31 years until 2020, was also blocked at the source by mobilizing thousands of police.

Recently, in Hong Kong alone, dozens of people, including members of the survivors’ association, the opposition party leader, and the former president of the Journalists’ Association, were arrested by the police in connection with the memorial issue of the Tiananmen Square Incident.
