‘Heavier tools’ in store for religious freedom

OneNewsNow has continuously reported on the rampant persecution against people of faith in countries like North Korea, Pakistan, and China. America has been able to do very little about this in the past, but now, President Trump has issued an executive order on advancing international religious freedom — an order that has some teeth.

Matias Perttula of International Christian Concern says his organization is elated.

“We’re going to get a lot more training for our diplomatic corps with this executive order,” he asserts. “It’s going to include a lot of heavier tools for religious freedom violators and persecutors. That includes visa restrictions and potential economic sanctions on either countries or individuals who perpetrate these actions.”
