The World - News from April 28, 1985

Chinese authorities forced foreign reporters away from a continuing demonstration in Peking by people seeking permission to move back to the capital from rural areas to which they were sent in the late 1960s during the Cultural Revolution. The officials also told the demonstrators to stop discussing their grievances with foreigners, “who can’t solve your problems.” The reporters were told they would need a special permit to enter the city hall zone where about 100 demonstrators gathered.
