China pressuring European govts over Nobel

Nov. 4 (Washington Post): China is pressuring European governments to avoid the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony for imprisoned democracy activist Liu Xiaobo and not make any statements in support of him.

The Chinese Embassy in Oslo has sent official letters to a number of Oslo-based European embassies asking them not to attend the Dec. 10 ceremony.
