(Minghui.org) Falun Dafa practitioners in Bucharest organized an event near the AFI Cotroceni shopping center on May 20, 2023, to raise awareness of the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) persecution of Falun Gong.
Bucharesters from all walks of life stopped by the booth to speak with practitioners. Many of them expressed support for Falun Dafa and its values of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and condemned the CCP’s persecution, which has continued for 24 years.

A painter who came by the booth said that she was very sorry that she had not met Dafa practitioners and learned about the persecution earlier. She said Falun Dafa’s principle of putting others before oneself can have a positive effect on society. She also said the sacrifice that Falun Gong practitioners make is one example .
A former military officer says the actions taken by Falun Dafa practitioners are more than welcome.
An 84-year-old former military officer was pleased to see the practitioners’ event. “The moral principles that the Falun Dafa practice promotes among people are good, and I think they will help today’s decaying society,” she said. “These morality-oriented actions are more than welcome, since today’s media spread immoral and uncultured information and have a bad influence on people.”
She took a flier with information about Falun Dafa and an origami lotus flower as gifts for her daughter.
