TAIPEI, Taiwan —
A statement issued at the end of an international symposium, organized by the Mongolian and Tibetan Affair Commission in Taipei, has called on political leaders worldwide not to attend the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games if China fails to take concrete actions to improve its human rights records.
The statement also appealed to the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to seriously consider the suspension of the Beijing Games as Beijing has so far taken few steps to improve its human rights records.
