Many pro-democracy activists managed to escape from the massacre and flee overseas, where they set up the Federation for a Democratic China, which is headquartered in Paris and currently has branches in five countries and liaison offices in six, to continue the struggle for democracy on the mainland.
經過血腥鎮壓而倖存的民運人士，紛紛逃往海外，在法國巴黎成立「民主中國陣線」，目前已在五個國家設立分部、六個國家設立聯絡處。繼續對大陸民主運動提供奧援。
