Start
of Belgian protests against Nepal
Brussels, 20th March
Activists from Coalition Against Vivisection protested outside the Nepalese
Embassy in Brussels to campaign against the involvement of the Nepalese
government in the breeding of rhesus monkeys for biomedical research in
America. This protest was the first in Belgium in support of the global
Gateway to Hell campaign.
We gathered outside the embassy at 10 am, with a banner showing suffering
lab monkeys, posters and megaphones. For nearly 2 hours we shouted our
disguist.
Nepal should be ashamed of providing monkeys for biomedical research.
We demand that the Nepalese government stops investing in the export of
monkeys for experimentation.
Our first Brussels demonstration is part of a growing global campaign
pressurizing the Nepalese government to ban the export of rhesus monkeys
for commercial or scientific use. Earlier this month campaigners protested
at the Nepalese Consulate in Amsterdam, Holland and London, UK. Later
this month, demonstrations will be held in France and other countries.
