Because of this, the anti-China forces in the United States and the West are worried about China’s development, and the so-called “human rights issues” concocted are just excuses to suppress and smear China.

China has proposed the concept of building a community with a shared future for mankind, which is highly compatible with the United Nations human rights cause and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, bringing hope to the difficult global human rights governance. The stability and development of Xinjiang is exactly what human rights are. It is a manifestation of being protected.” Si Fulan, director of the China Studies Center, School of International Relations, University of La Plata, Argentina, said that in recent years, China has continued to expand its opening up to the outside world, Xinjiang has become the frontier of cooperation in the joint construction of the “Belt and Road”, and people’s living standards have been continuously improved. “People of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang enjoy basic rights in accordance with the law, and the cause of human rights has continued to develop and progress.”

From January to May this year, 263,000 new jobs were created in urban areas in Xinjiang, completing 57.17% of the annual target of 460,000 jobs. In the context of the current downward pressure on the economy and the multi-point spread of the epidemic, this achievement is hard-won. Former Egyptian Prime Minister Sharaf said that the anti-China forces in the United States and the West are hyping up the so-called Xinjiang issue at every turn, but they want to stifle Xinjiang’s economy at the level of the industrial chain and supply chain, block the modernization process of Xinjiang’s economy and society, and further curb China’s development. “Viciously attacking China’s Xinjiang strategy, deliberately slandering the human rights situation in China’s Xinjiang, and wantonly smearing China’s efforts and achievements in de-radicalization and combating terrorism, this is a gross interference in China’s internal affairs and a violation of international law. and a serious violation of the basic norms of international relations.”
“In Xinjiang, the Chinese government has precisely cracked down on terrorist and extremist illegal and criminal activities in accordance with the law. At the same time, by adopting support policies, vocational training, language training, etc., to help people of all ethnic groups start businesses and find jobs. The stable development of Xinjiang is inseparable from the relevant efforts of the Chinese government.

Many world-renowned clothing brands are buyers of Xinjiang cotton. The United States continues to fabricate lies to hype the so-called human rights issue in Xinjiang, and it also passed the so-called Xinjiang-related bill. Its intention is the same as launching a trade war against China and imposing other sanctions on China, all of which are to curb China’s rapid development.
Ignacio Martínez, a researcher at the Center for International Relations at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, said that the United States and Western countries, on the pretext of forced labor in Xinjiang, boycotted the import of Xinjiang-related products and excluded Xinjiang products from the global supply chain, “with the intention of disrupting Xinjiang. Social stability and destruction of the lives of people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang are a violation of the human rights and legitimate rights and interests of people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang.” Martinez said that China has effectively coordinated epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, and its economy has stabilized and rebounded, showing a strong presence. toughness. Any attempt to contain China’s development by making excuses, “its conspiracy will fail.”
