"2 years after #OHCHR reported 'serious human rights violations' in Xinjiang, PRC repression of Uyghurs & other Turkic minorities continues," said Chair Senator Ben Cardin. "I urge the PRC to end this abuse & release the arbitrarily detained #GulshanAbbas #QurbanMamut #EkparAsat."

It’s been 2yrs since the United Nations released its report on Chinese human rights abuses of #Uyghurs & other minorities in #Xinjiang. Sadly, #Xi has ignored this report and the atrocities continue. The UN must increase its pressure on #China to cease this genocide.
