TIL Desk/World/Washington/ The White House has called on China to provide a full accounting of those who were killed, detained or remain missing in connection with events surrounding the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre. “The Chinese Communist Party’s slaughter of unarmed Chinese civilians was a tragedy that will not be forgotten,” White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany said in a statement on Thursday, joining the global condemnation of the massacre.
The American people reflect on the courage and optimism of the hundreds of thousands of Chinese citizens who gathered peacefully 31 years ago in Beijing and throughout China to protest widespread official corruption and demand a greater say in the governance of their country, she said.
“The United States calls on China to honour the memory of those who lost their lives and to provide a full accounting of those who were killed, detained, or remain missing in connection with the events surrounding the Tiananmen Square massacre on June 4, 1989, McEnany said on the 31st anniversary of the incident.
