China blocks Li Peng's memoirs
AFP , BEIJING
Sunday, Mar 21, 2004,Page 2

China's Communist Party has blocked former premier Li Peng (??) from publishing a memoir aimed at cleansing his legacy as the perpetrator behind the 1989 Tiananmen massacre, according to a Hong Kong news magazine.

Li's nearly 300,000-word manuscript, titled The Key Moment, details how important decisions and assessments at the time were not made by him as widely believed, the Yazhou Zhoukan said.

The former premier sought to explain how leaders in the central government were divided over what to do about the weeks-long pro-democracy protests in Beijing's Tiananmen Square, the magazine said in its March 28 issue.

Li, 76, finished the memoir last autumn and sent the manuscript together with dozens of photos to the Communist Party's top organ, the Politburo, seeking permission to publish it, Yazhou Zhoukan reported.
