1 Feb 1989 Jahr - China's under martial law

Beschreibung:

The student movement in Beijing in the spring of 1989 was triggered by the death of former General Secretary Hu Yaobang on April 15. Well before martial law was declared on May 19, the government called army troops into the city to help the police maintain order. On April 22, the Beijing Garrison's 13th Safeguard Regiment and nearly 9,000 soldiers from the 38th Army were deployed around the Great Hall of the People during Hu Yaobang's funeral.
