UK: “We will work with international partners to change CCP’s actions”

British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss said on Thursday that Britain will continue to work with international partners to seek changes in Communist China’s behaviour.

Truss, who is expected to be the next UK prime minister, said: “This report … provides new evidence of the alarming extent of China’s repression of Uyghurs and other ethnic minorities in Xinjiang. We will continue to work with international partners to change China’s actions to immediately end its egregious human rights abuses in Xinjiang.”

US: “We call on the CCP to immediately stop atrocities, allow independent investigations into Xinjiang, and demand accountability”

Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in a statement that the report authoritatively described China’s “appalling treatment” of ethnic and religious minorities.

Blinken said the Xinjiang human rights report deepens and reiterates the U.S.’s serious concerns about the ongoing genocide and crimes against humanity by Chinese authorities against the predominantly Muslim Uyghurs and members of other ethnic and religious groups in Xinjiang.
