The French Foreign Affairs Minister also answered an inquiry by a member of the French Parliament regarding the persecution of Falun Gong in China. These letters showed that France and Europe as a whole have started to pay attention to the persecution of Falun Gong in China.

The French Prime Minister addressed the issue of human rights with the Chinese Premier during his visit at the end of September this year.
