British Foreign Secretary: may Boycott 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic To Raise his Concerns on CCP Suppression to Uyghurs

The Uyghurs human rights matter in Xinjiang, China has attracted international attention. Following the joint statement from 39 countries, including Germany, the US and the UK, calling on China to allow UN observers to investigate in Xinjiang, the British Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said on the Foreign Affairs Committee of Parliament that the UK should take actions to call China for direct facing the problem. He also said he would not rule out the possibility of boycotting the Beijing Winter Olympics in February 2022.

On Tuesday in the local time, the Foreign Affairs Committee of the British Parliament discussed the Uyghurs human rights in China. Raab was asked whether he would take a stand on boycotting the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics. He answered that he hoped to separate sports and diplomatic politics, but “may come to a point where that might not be possible”. He would collect evidence and co-orporate with the international society, to think about the further actions in the future.

Raab also said in the meeting that the situation with the Uyghurs was worrying as they were being detained, tortured and forcibly sterilized. Their human rights had been severely violated. The UK needed to take action and demanded China to take responsibility. He hoped to corporate with other countries, or even to send a clear opposition message to China through sanctions.

The first time since #Tiananmen Massacre in 1989, #EU is set to sanction human rights abusers in #China! Senior #EU officials will start the sanctions which include travel ban and freezing of assets of officials responsible for the human rights atrocities against Uyghurs in #Xinjiang or #East Turkestan. These sanctions will need formal sign-off, we're banking on it to happen. However, we must also take notice that the Netherlands remains the only European country so far with a parliament that voted to formally recognize #CCP's action as genocide. Do keep up, Europe! At the same time, we urge #Canada, whose parliament has declared CCP's action as genocide to sanction #Chinese officials responsible for the torture, rape and murder of thousands of ethnic minorities!
