UK Condemns Systematic Sexual Assault in Xinjiang’s Concentration Camps as “Evil”, Vows to Keep Pressuring China with US and Europe

Following a BBC report on the large-scale sexual assault, sexual abuse and torture in Xinjiang’s concentration camps, the UK condemned the acts as “clearly evil” after a similar statement from the US.

In an urgent question in the House of Commons, Conservative MP Nus Ghani said there is growing evidence of the atrocities by the Chinese government and even genocide in Xinjiang. Ghani demanded that Nigel Adams, the UK’s Deputy Minister for Asian Affairs, guarantee that no further ties with China will be made before the situation is thoroughly investigated.

Adams said in response that the UK is among those leading the effort to hold China accountable and that anyone who has seen the reports “cannot help but be moved and distressed by what are clearly evil acts”. Adams added that the UK will continue to pressure China with the US administration under Biden and other European countries.

Meanwhile, the Australian foreign minister Marise Payne called for an immediate UN investigation in Xinjiang.

Swedish Website Publishes #PoliticalCartoon, Mocking the "Unsportsmanlike behaviour by Beijing"

A satirical cartoon drawn by artist Niklas "Kludd-Niklas" Eriksson was published on a Swedish website Kinamedia.

The cartoon goes with the title "Unsportsmanlike behaviour by Beijing," referring to how the Chinese Community Party (#CCP) deployed different means to silence the country's own top tennis athlete #PangShuai.

As one of the most well-known female tennis player from China, Pang in early November 2021 disclosed on social media that CCP's former Vice Premier #ZhangGaoli had coerced her into sex at his home, in the presence of his wife. The social media post was soon removed and Pang has not been seen in public since then.
