- W3033366937 abstract "Uighurs are a Turkic people native to Central and East Asia and one of 55 ethnic minorities officially recognized by government of China. Over 11 million Uighurs live in Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region in northwest of China, making up around 45% of local population. The majority of Uighurs practice Sunni Islam.Xinjiang is a historically restive region, and after 9/11 attacks, Chinese state media started to single out Uighurs as terrorists, separatists and extremists, branding them as China’s number one enemy within. According to Hong Kong-based group Uyghur Human Rights Project, Uighurs lead predominantly secular lives, which contradicts Chinese government’s justification of crackdown against minority in name of de-extremification.Beijing’s repressive measures, however, come against backdrop of reports that Chinese Muslims from Xinjiang have joined Islamic State in Iraq and Syria. The alleged connections between Uighur Muslims and global jihadist groups, as well as a number of attacks both inside China and against Chinese targets abroad attributed to Uighur militants, has been used to legitimize violence against Uighur community. The Chinese authorities have banned beards, forbade religious training for children and denied families right to give their children names with religious meaning.Numerous human rights group have reported that around a million Uighur Muslims are being kept by Chinese government in internment camps where they are subject to “re-education” programs aimed at forcing them to renounce their religion. The psychological indoctrination programs in these camps include studying communist propaganda and expressing thanks to President Xi Jingping. The authorities have allegedly used waterboarding and other torture techniques against inmates. The Chinese government denies these allegations.Earlier in 2019, mistreatment of Uighurs and other Muslims in Xinjiang region came up at UN Human Rights Council’s main annual session in Geneva, despite China having lobbied extensively to avoid accountability and keep issue under radar. Kenneth Roth, executive director of Human Rights Watch, said in a statement that the magnitude of abuses allegedly occurring in Xinjiang demand uncompromising scrutiny, noting that investigating plight of Uighur Muslims was a test of credibility for UN.In this edition of The Interview, Fair Observer talks to Dr. Anna Hayes, a senior lecturer of political science at James Cook University in North Queensland, Australia, about violations of human rights in China’s Xinjiang region and international community’s response to plight of Uighur Muslims." @default.
