Tibet demo outside Chinese Embassy – updated

Dansk Selskab for Tibetansk Kultur and Students for a Free Tibet are tomorrow holding a demonstration in front of the Chinese Embassy in Hellerup. The protest will also send a message out regarding the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.

Previously, it was reported that a Tibet-Ukraine march would leave Østerport Station at 15:00 and stop for a while outside the Russian Embassy before making its way on to the Chinese Embassy, but the march has now been cancelled, Students for a Free Tibet informed CPH POST last night.
