(Washington, D.C.—Sept. 24, 2019) "U.S. President Donald Trump called a United Nations meeting, at which he spoke yesterday, highlighting global religious freedom crises."
"International gatherings urging action against religious freedom has become increasingly urgent as persecution rises against people of faith across the globe. Last year, ChinaAid recorded 1 million Christians persecuted within the year 2018, more than 10,000 of whom were Christians. Fu discussed this statistic at a United Nations side event in Geneva on Thursday morning, saying this constituted “a 348% increase” from the 223,200 documented Christians persecuted in 2017."
