Tiananmen security tight on crackdown anniversary
China marked the 20th anniversary of the June 3-4 crackdown with a massive police presence around Tiananmen Square. Foreign journalists faced bans, dissidents were confined, and online platforms were blocked as authorities pressed a hard line against commemoration and dissent. Wu’er Kaixi, a prominent exiled student leader, was denied entry to Macau to face officials and return to China. Hillary Clinton urged China to openly confront past abuses.
