I move:

That the Senate—

(a)

remembers the thousands of people who were killed 20 years ago on 4 June 1989 in the Tiananmen Square massacre;

(b)

supports the pro-democracy and pro-human rights principles outlined in Charter 08, which has been written by prominent Chinese academics and activists; and

(c)

condemns the detention and interrogation of signatories to the Charter 08 by Chinese authorities, including the continued detention of acclaimed author Liu Xiaobo.
