UK accuses China of 'gross' human rights abuses against Uighurs

Asked whether the treatment of the Uighurs met the legal definition of genocide, Mr Raab said the international community had to be "careful" before making such claims.

But he said: "Whatever the legal label, it is clear that gross, egregious human rights abuses are going on.

"It is deeply, deeply troubling and the reports on the human aspect of this - from forced sterilisation to the education camps - are reminiscent of something we have not seen for a very long time.

UK accuses China of 'gross' human rights abuses against Uighurs


It's about time someone put some pressure on China about this. They should be cut off from the world if they are going to treat people worst than Hitler did the Jews.

Cheers to our cousins across the pond for calling them out. The whole world needs to hold the CCP to account for these actions and more.

I throw caution to the wind and say the CCP is clearly committing genocide on it's own people and that is something worth protesting about, IMO.

Finally.

How long have videos been popping up about them being in concentration camps.

At least 5 years ago.

Think vice has a documentary.

It's that's sweet Sino Cheese.

Thanks to Donald Trump, the status quo with regard to China is finally over.

Very true. There have been tons of videos, even on censored YT, about this for years.

A YT search of "Uighurs genocide" filtered to only show videos from today brings up lots of videos. Here are a few.

The first video shows people being herded into train cars. Where have we seen that before?

Still rooting for Trump to shake up the economic addiction we have with China.

As it stands, their leverage on us is far too great for us to address China in any meaningful way. Trump seems to be the only American politician who voices a will to change that.

We can deal with it now intelligently by changing the dynamic (which COVID should show needs to be done given how deep it impacted so many supply chains)... Or we can roll the dice and react instead of being proactive. I'd hope most people realize our failure rate for reaction is dangerously high.

While I certainly agree there are many human rights issues with China,I have little confidence this is anything more than political manouvering-We in the UK/Europe/USA have been enabling the chinese government for many years and have never done anything concrete to try to stop the horrors they are responsible for,all in the name of globalisation,and under the nonsensical pretext that if we trade and have good relations with them,we will be able to pressure them to change their cruel ways.

Well,what a sick joke that turned out to be.
We now see an emboldened chinese government who think they can get away with anything because we seem to care more about cheap crappy products than the treatment of "insert latest oppressed/tortured group here."

We are told we all live happily in the "global village" and everyone is our neighbor-well answer this-If your local neighbor was a person who sold the cheapest food/cars/whatever,but had a sideline in mass torture and organ harvesting,and also stole properties from your other local neighbors-Would you buy food/cars etc from that person?

On a national scale,Great Britain and the USA say "Hell yeah I would."
IMHO,that is morally bankrupt and is only beneficial to a small group of already very rich and greedy people,but is of great detriment to rest of the world.

It is sick what our countries have let the CCP get away with.

It's not the people of Great Britain and the USA. As you said "a small group of already very rich and greedy people". The nation-less trillionaires.

2020 has been rough, but I think it is opening up the eyes of a lot of people in this world. I hope so anyway. 2020 does mean perfect vision.

What we can see here is a real opportunity for the Christian and Islamic world to find some commonality and face the Chinese as one. this moment could be the very moment that all the chaos of the past 100 years between the Abraham religions ceases and they find common cause in confronting the Communists who will in the long term see all of Abraham as something to erase from the Planet. Its just a conspiracy theory but one that unite Abramics

Wow this documentary is over 10 yrs old.

This is coming from a nation whose 'world's greatest genocide' was mistranslated as 'great leap forward.'

China are bullies. When us aussies were to first to ask for a probe, they slammed us with tariffs and cyber attacks to silence what we all know what they did, the evidence is overwhelming.

I don't care if the chinese are hacking this, because they need to read this:

Empires fall.

Most politician's yours and ours are for sale, Trump like of loath him is at least his own man and though he is open about business deal's and being a business man he is also for your nation more than your other politician's are.

He at least has not been bought off by the Chinese though have no doubt they would have either tried it or thought about it and at the moment though the US is suffering it's own internal problems probably funded in some way by those that want to destroy the US and have a little copy of Mao's red book in there secret stash nevertheless Trump remains the cure for the west falling into second and then third world category.

He is not perfect certainly but compared to his opposite number, well at least he cares and is willing to do what has to be done so I hope he get's a second term for long term global stability reason's BUT I also hope your nation find's peaceful and amicable solutions to it's internal problem's which it is facing at the moment, we the rest of the developed world NEED the US and we need it intact.

I hope the Troika whom ran Europe into the ground, causing the borders to be opened up to mass economic and culturally destructive and divisive migration are also show up for the quisling type scum they really are as well whoring Europe to China like they did.

Thanks for posting the video

It was interesting, didn't focus on anything like rounding up Uighurs or harvesting their organs in prison camps.

It talked mainly about kicking them out of their 400 year old houses that they have lived in for generations.

This is interesting to me because I think it shows the beginning of the genocide, before any systematic killing.

In this video the CCP is destroying the Uighurs as a people and culture, by taking away their history. That is always one of the first steps.

About damned time. The world kisses up to a nation who wants to take over the world militarily and shamelessly deploys concentration camps and slave labor.

Didn't we play this game in the 1930's and 1940's already?

The evidence is beyond overwhelming and has been ignored by most of the media around the world.

I think the CCP is the biggest and baddest organized crime organization in history. They "own" many politicians in almost every country around the globe. They "own" almost every world organization, like the WHO and UN.

If the world doesn't look at the actions in China and Hong Kong and do something... It really is the end. It will only get worst from here on out.

ETA - Forgot to include this for any who don't know what the Great Leap Forward was all about.

The Great Leap Forward (Second Five Year Plan) of the People's Republic of China (PRC) was an economic and social campaign led by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) from 1958 to 1962. Chairman Mao Zedong launched the campaign to reconstruct the country from an agrarian economy into a communist society through the formation of people's communes. Mao decreed increased efforts to multiply grain yields and bring industry to the countryside. Local officials were fearful of Anti-Rightist Campaigns and competed to fulfill or over-fulfill quotas based on Mao's exaggerated claims, collecting "surpluses" that in fact did not exist and leaving farmers to starve. Higher officials did not dare to report the economic disaster caused by these policies, and national officials, blaming bad weather for the decline in food output, took little or no action. The Great Leap resulted in tens of millions of deaths,[1] with estimates ranging between 18 million and 45 million deaths,[2] making the Great Chinese Famine the largest in human history.

Chief changes in the lives of rural Chinese people included the incremental introduction of mandatory agricultural collectivization. Private farming was prohibited, and those engaged in it were persecuted and labeled counter-revolutionaries. Restrictions on rural people were enforced through public struggle sessions and social pressure, although people also experienced forced labor.[3] Rural industrialization, while officially a priority of the campaign, saw "its development ... aborted by the mistakes of the Great Leap Forward."[4] The Great Leap was one of two periods between 1953 and 1976 in which China's economy shrank.[5] Economist Dwight Perkins argues that "enormous amounts of investment produced only modest increases in production or none at all. ... In short, the Great Leap was a very expensive disaster."[6]

In 1959, Mao Zedong ceded day-to-day leadership to pragmatic moderates like Liu Shaoqi and Deng Xiaoping and the CPC studied the damage done at conferences in 1960 and 1962, especially at the "Seven Thousand Cadres Conference". Mao did not retreat from his policies and instead blamed problems on bad implementation and "rightists" for opposing him. He initiated the Socialist Education Movement in 1963 and the Cultural Revolution in 1966 in order to remove opposition and re-consolidate his power. In addition, dozens of dams constructed in Zhumadian, Henan, during the Great Leap Forward collapsed in 1975 under the influence of Typhoon Nina and resulted in one of the greatest man-made catastrophes in history, with an estimated death toll between tens of thousands to 240,000.

and other major companies and organizations are concerned. They are censoring on behalf of China.

These companies and others are bowing to the wishes of this Hitler like regime who have and are openly committing genocide on a wide scale and quite open basis.

The companies listed above and others are doing it because they can get stuff made cheaper in China and so are tacitly supporting genocide with their bottom line being more important than Hitler like genocide. mashable.com...

We need to boycott all companies who are bowing to China and censoring on behalf of China, to make the Chinese government look good and not like the genocidal maniacs the government of China has become.

The Chinese government care so little about human life, and so desire power, that they are responsible for letting COVID 19 getting out of control and spreading to the world and killing off millions worldwide. To save face'

This year the power mad and insane Chinese government officials have just shown the entire world how downright evil their government has become and how very little it cares for human life and the lengths they will go to for power. The Chinese government officials are making Hitler look like a boy scout.

Worst of all many US companies are tacitly supporting this evil to the core regime which is showing the world just what happens when a nation becomes socialist/communist.
