China Still Meets Religious Freedom Violator Standard After Pastor Jin’s Release...

The Foundation for Defense of Democracies states that China continues to qualify as a religious freedom violator following the release of Pastor Jin. The assessment focuses on the Chinese government's ongoing restrictions on Christian practice and house churches.

Pastor Jin's case is cited as an example of selective releases that do not alter the broader pattern of persecution. FDD maintains that the designation under U.S. standards remains unchanged.
