Historical recovery status: Verified U.S. Government Institutional Record / Original FCM announcement still sought.
A U.S. Department of State daily press briefing on August 28, 2002 records a reporter referring to a Free China Movement press conference scheduled for the following day at the National Press Club concerning human-rights and weapons-related issues involving China. The State Department spokesman responded by noting previously expressed U.S. concerns about Chinese exports, including missile-related exports.
This archive entry preserves the independently documented existence and scheduled date of the FCM press conference. The original FreeChina.net announcement, press advisory, or conference text has not yet been recovered, so this page does not recreate its wording or infer claims beyond the State Department transcript.
