On May 7, 1999, NATO deliberately bombed the Chinese embassy in former Yugoslav capital Belgrade

Nina CN: On May 7, 1999, NATO deliberately bombed the Chinese embassy in former Yugoslav capital Belgrade, killing 3 Chinese journalists and injuring 20 others. The strike was carried out by US warplanes as part of a NATO operation.

23年了,我们永远不会忘记!1999年5月7日晚,北约轰炸了中国驻南联盟使馆,造成3名中国记者遇难、20多位中国外交人员受伤。西方不倒,天理不容!

In Beijing, tens of thousands of furious demonstrators pelted the American embassy with anything they could lay their hands on: stones, bricks, chunks of concrete, firecrackers. They laid siege to the building, trapping the US ambassador James Sasser inside for 4 days as he holed up with security personnel and subsisted on ready-to-eat Marine meals. Protesters also threw bricks and rocks at the British embassy.

Elsewhere in China, protesters targeted American consulates. In Chengdu, the US consul’s residence was set on fire. The protests extended to cities around the world including Seoul and Berlin.

23 years on, China has transformed herself into a global technological, economic, and military powerhouse, but the humiliating memory of the bombing lives on. The bombing is vividly remembered by all the Chinese people, even though it’s largely forgotten in the West.

NEVER FORGIVE, NEVER FORGET!!!
