La Cámara Baja de EUA condena a China por la represión de etnias musulmanas

December 4, 2019 - La Cámara de Representantes de EUA aprobó abrumadoramente un proyecto de ley que condena la represión masiva de China contra las minorías étnicas musulmanas en su lejana región occidental de Xinjiang.

China protested the U.S. bill early Wednesday.

The legislation condemns the detention of more than one million Uighurs, Kazakhs and other minorities in so-called re-education camps, where they are subjected to political indoctrination, torture, beatings, and food deprivation, as well as denial of religious and linguistic freedom.

It would require the State Department to evaluate whether Chinese officials would meet the criteria for sanctions for their roles in the crackdown in the Xinjiang region.
