On the 34th Anniversary of Tiananmen Square
Tomorrow, we observe the 34th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square Massacre.

The victims’ bravery will not be forgotten and continues to inspire advocates for these principles around the world. The United States will continue advocating for people’s human rights and fundamental freedoms in China and around the world.
