The University of Hong Kong earlier asked the disbanded stake to remove the pillar of national death that had been displayed on campus for many years and mourned the victims of June 4th.

The Danish sculptor Jens Galschiøt, who created the "Pillar of National Sorrow", said earlier that he would buy time from the school and plan to move the "Pillar of National Sorrow" to Europe, the United States, and Asia in its entirety.


The Danish Minister of Foreign Affairs (Jeppe Kofoed) issued a statement stating that although the Danish government does not have the right to decide what works of art the universities of other countries choose to display, he must be vigilant about freedom of speech and freedom of art in other parts of the world.

Kefferd’s statement stated that he has been seriously concerned about the development of the situation in Hong Kong for a long time, and has reflected his views to the Beijing authorities, emphasizing that freedom of speech and other forms of expression in peace is the basic right of all people, and Hong Kong is no exception.

This statement was forwarded to the media by Danish sculptor Gao Zhihuo, creator of "Pillars of National Sorrow".

Earlier, the University of Hong Kong notified the disbanded stakes and asked the stakes to remove the "Pillar of National Sorrow" by 5 pm the day before (13th), otherwise it would be regarded as a waiver. However, after the deadline, the University did not take any action.

At the same time, Gao Zhihuo also stated that he is planning to move the "Pillar of National Sorrow" to Europe or the United States in its entirety. He has bought time from the University of Hong Kong and is expected to complete the relocation within a few months.

Gao Zhihuo pointed out that he hoped that the "pillar of national sorrow" could remain in Hong Kong, but he believed that it might be regarded as a violation of the Hong Kong version of the "National Security Law."

He believes that universities should promote free and academic discussion, and criticize the University of Hong Kong's request to remove the "pillar of national sorrow" as a shame.
