Thousands of prodemocracy demonstrators have been shot. forced into labor camps. or have simply disappeared with no further trace. Even the State Department itself has documented the use of cattle prods. electrodes. and beatings against Chinese prisoners. Chinas policy of coerced abortions and forced sterilizations is contrary to any minimal standards of decency and respect for human rights and life. There is no free emigration in China today. Emigration is strictly controlled and those most desperate to leave have no realistic opportunity of doing so. Chinas export of nuclear technology and missiles continues unabated. Despite promises made to National Security Advisor Brent Scowcroft during his secret visit to Beijing only weeks after the Tiananmen Square massacre.
