The IRF Community and Southeast Asia Working Group circulated a letter calling on President Biden to address Vietnam's escalating repression of independent religious groups during his upcoming state visit on September 5. The letter highlights the forced renunciation of faith among Montagnard and Hmong Christians, crackdowns on independent house churches, and coercion of religious groups into government-controlled organizations. It urges the Biden Administration to take concrete actions, including demanding an end to forced faith renunciation, revising Vietnam’s restrictive Penal Code articles, releasing religious prisoners, and halting transnational repression of diaspora activists.
