2025年2月13日，在中国外交部长王毅对英国进行正式访问期间，伦敦市中心中国大使馆前出现了一场抗议示威活动。由中国民主党英国总部的成员组成，我们聚集在大使馆外，高举标语牌，口号声此起彼伏，要求关注中国国内日益恶化的人权状况，呼吁释放政治犯，并批评中国政府对异见人士的镇压。
在示威现场，中国民主党英国总部党员，抗议活动总指挥成小丹，副总指挥何智威分别接受了国际媒体的采访。他们在接受美国之音和自由亚洲之声采访时表示：“中国没有真正的言论自由，也没有保障基本人权。我们走上街头，就是为了让世界看到中国政府对异见声音的压制，我们必须为民主和自由发声。”另一位抗议者则用“战狼总教头”这一词汇严厉抨击王毅，认为其此次访英行程是在为中共的专制统治“披上国际外交的外衣”。
据现场观察员和部分国际媒体报道，当日示威总体保持和平，警方在现场保持戒备，确保集会秩序不致失控。党员的举动被解读为对中国政府一贯人权记录的持续抗议，同时也反映出部分海外异见人士对中国外交行动的强烈不满。 此外，另一部分报道指出，示威活动不仅引起了英国政界和社会各界的关注，也使得外界再次聚焦于中英双边关系中如何平衡经济外交与人权议题。我们作为中国民主党英国总部的成员，代表着对中国现行政治体制和专制统治的深切批评，同时也希望借此敦促英国政府在处理中外关系时，更多考虑普世价值和人权保障问题。
总体来看，2025年2月13日这场示威活动不仅是王毅访英行程中的一个插曲，更是海外华人和部分异见人士持续发声、呼吁政治改革的一次重要行动。中国民主党英国总部借由这一平台表达了对中国政府内外政策的尖锐质疑，也反映出国际社会对中国人权状况和民主发展问题的长期关注。

Protest by the UK Headquarters of China Democracy Party in Front of the Chinese Embassy During Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi’s Visit to the UK
On 13 February 2025, during the official visit of Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi to the United Kingdom, a protest took place outside the Chinese Embassy in central London. Organised by members of the UK Headquarters of China Democracy Party, demonstrators gathered outside the embassy, holding placards and chanting slogans to draw attention to China’s deteriorating human rights situation. The protest called for the release of political prisoners and condemned the Chinese government’s suppression of dissent.
At the protest site, Cheng Xiaodan, the chief coordinator of the demonstration, and He Zhiwei, the deputy coordinator, gave interviews to international media. Speaking to Voice of America and Radio Free Asia, they stated, “There is no real freedom of speech in China, nor are basic human rights protected. We have taken to the streets to show the world how the Chinese government suppresses dissenting voices. We must speak up for democracy and freedom.” Another protester criticised Wang Yi, referring to him as the “chief instructor of wolf warrior diplomacy”, arguing that his visit to the UK was an attempt to cloak the CCP’s authoritarian rule in the guise of international diplomacy.
According to on-site observers and reports from international media, the demonstration remained peaceful overall, with police maintaining security to ensure public order. The protest was widely interpreted as a continued condemnation of China’s human rights record and an expression of discontent among overseas dissidents towards the Chinese government’s diplomatic manoeuvres. Additionally, some reports noted that the protest drew attention from British political circles and civil society, reigniting discussions on how UK-China relations should balance economic diplomacy with human rights concerns.
As members of the UK Headquarters of China Democracy Party, we represent a strong critique of China’s current political system and authoritarian rule. Through this demonstration, we sought to urge the British government to prioritise universal values and human rights protections when engaging with China.
Overall, the protest on 13 February 2025 was not just a side event during Wang Yi’s visit but a significant action by overseas Chinese and dissidents to continue calling for political reform. The UK Headquarters of China Democracy Party used this platform to express sharp criticism of the Chinese government’s domestic and foreign policies, while also reflecting the international community’s ongoing concerns over human rights and democratic development in China.
