Original Note:
False. The protestors demanded freedom of the press including privately run news & constitutional freedoms, anti-corruption reform & institutionalising democratic practices. Further, soldiers can be seen heavily armed in footage. This death toll is also disputed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMKvxJ-Js3A https://web.archive.org/web/20040706113745/http://www.foreignaffairs.org/20010101faessay4257-p0/andrew-j-nathan/the-tiananmen-papers.html https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-42465516
