Four New Zealand lawmakers visited Taiwan. China's response? A travel ban and a demand for an apology.
No country should have to seek permission from Beijing to engage with a democratic partner. Taiwan is not off limits simply because the CCP says so.
The stronger the pressure, the more important it becomes to defend democratic values and free exchange.

Tiananmen Square massacre survivor Arthur Liu speaking at a hearing of Congressional-Executive Commission on China:“America will not be safe until China becomes a democracy.”
As a survivor of the 1989 Tiananmen massacre, Arthur Liu's voice carries the weight of lived experience. At a time when the CCP censors history, erases the truth about Tiananmen, silences dissidents, and persecutes Tibetans, Uyghurs, Hongkongers, and democracy advocates, testimonies like his are more important than ever.

A powerful show of solidarity for Tibet in the Baltic region.
Speaking at Latvia's Parliament, Richard Gere urged democratic nations to stand with the Tibetan people and defend their fundamental rights against growing repression.
From the Baltics to the Himalayas, the message is clear: cultural identity, freedom, and human dignity are not negotiable.

We've been researching, documenting/exposing what is a genocide against the people of Tibet. There was no missile strikes or towns reduced to dust, but forced sterilizations, mass-colonization and Tibet's children forced into indoctrination centers is erasing Tibetan identity
We must honor the Dalai Lama’s wish to ‘be reborn in freedom’ but ‘not in China,’” said Rep. Michael McCaul.
The future reincarnation of His Holiness is a matter of Tibetan religious freedom not CCP political control. McCaul’s proposed legislation reinforces that only the Tibetan Buddhist tradition and the Gaden Phodrang Trust hold the authority, not Beijing.
Any attempt by the CCP to impose a state selected Dalai Lama would be a direct attack on faith, identity, and the rights of the Tibetan people.
