    Beyond Xinjiang's camps, China threatens Uighurs globally
    7-8 minuten

    It’s well known that China uses its vast surveillance network to monitor its ethnic minorities, including Tibetans and Uighurs. But leaked documents — the Karakax list — from the western region of Xinjiang show that across Europe, exiled Uighurs report surveillance by the Chinese state and threats of harm to their relatives in Xinjiang if they make noise about Chinese repression at home. The Chinese government disputes reports of the records, but it appears this has become part of the new normal for China, even as it continues to battle the COVID-19 pandemic.

    The leaked documents from Xinjiang show the Chinese government’s reasons for detaining several hundred Uighurs. The Karakax list contains personal data on more than 300 individuals with relatives abroad. The Chinese government has flagged “people who leave the country and do not return” as a security risk in Xinjiang, because of their possible ties to exiled groups deemed as “separatists” by Beijing. Details about family members, social circles and religious beliefs, as well as perceived misdemeanors, are in the file.

    This would appear to confirm China’s surveillance and imprisonment of hundreds of individuals from the Karakax region, where Turkic Uighur Muslims make up more than 90 percent of the population. Uighurs in Xinjiang are being punished because of the actions of family members abroad, suggesting that the Chinese state and intelligence agencies have created a surveillance network in the West. The documents also contradict Beijing’s claims that its “re-education” programs in Xinjiang are voluntary and target only violent extremists. Justifications for imprisonment of Muslims include their praying at home, keeping in touch with relatives overseas, and having more children than allowed by the state.

    Rahima Mehmut, a British activist and singer in the London Uyghur Ensemble, was one of the first to discover classified reports of the existence of detention camps. Mehmut says she lost contact with her family three years ago when they stopped answering her calls, and that even in the U.K., there appears to be little support for Uighurs. According to Mehmut, one student at a British university warned her recently that “our university has already become red,” meaning a Chinese informant is on campus. The small community of Uighurs in the U.K. reportedly have stopped celebrations of their freedom from repression because of the fear that Chinese spies are everywhere.

    The World Uyghur Congress (WUC), which works to protect the diaspora’s rights, claims that China targets Uighurs living in the West and demands information on their community, promising safety for their relatives in Xinjiang in return. Kerim Zair, a Uighur who moved from Norway to London, says he received an anonymous call a few years ago: “They requested that I work for them. I rejected them. … I don’t know how they got my number.”

    Classified documents known as the China Cables, accessed last year by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, throw light on how the Chinese government uses technology to control Uighurs worldwide.

    According to the China Cables, China uses sophisticated tools for population control and mass surveillance with a program called Integrated Joint Operations Platform, or IJOP. This platform aggregates data about individuals, often without their knowledge, and flags data it deems potentially threatening or “suspicious.” The Chinese government uses IJOP to compile databases of intimate information from a range of sources, including national identification documents, Xinjiang’s countless checkpoints, closed-circuit cameras with facial recognition, spyware that police force Uighurs to install on their phones, Wi-Fi sniffers that collect identifying information on smartphones and computers, and package delivery. This technology tracks relatives of Uighurs who are based in the West and provides an opening to the Chinese state to infiltrate Uighur communities abroad.

    Every two months, the WUC receives more than a hundred reports of Communist Party of China (CPC) officials allegedly harassing Uighurs living outside China to inform on their own people. This has a psychological impact on these exiles, who may break down because of the pressure. Families are being targeted in Xinjiang if their relatives abroad criticize the CPC. One report, based on interviews with 12 Uighurs in the U.K., found that most of them developed problems such as paranoia, PTSD, depression, anxiety and night terrors.

    A larger worry for Uighur rights activists is the health of those interned in Xinjiang. Activists say the cramped, unhygienic conditions in China’s concentration camps allow for the unrestricted spread of COVID-19. During a World Health Organization (WHO) fact-finding mission this year, Chinese government officials played down the risks of coronavirus in the Muslim-majority region, saying most of those in the camps had “graduated” and been released. Records show that by early 2019, most individuals on the Karakax list had been allowed to leave the camps. However, Uighur activists outside China say they still cannot contact relatives in the country. The United Nations estimates about 1 million people are being held in the camps, and UN human rights chief Michelle Bachelet has urged China to grant a team of monitors unfettered access to Xinjiang later this year.

    Those who have been released from the camps reportedly have been relocated to other parts of China to work as slave laborers in factories. A report by the Australian Strategic Policy Institute alleges that authorities transferred thousands of Uighurs to work in factories producing goods for some of the world’s biggest brands, while keeping them under close watch. Authorities in Xinjiang, and the companies accused of benefiting from forced labor, say the Australian report was part of a smear campaign.

    While China continues its war with the U.S. over the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic, there is still concern over its treatment of Uighurs, both in Xinjiang and those living in exile. The China Cables and Karakax list appear to provide evidence of the extent to which the Chinese government uses technology to suppress and persecute Uighurs across the world, threatening their culture, way of life and very existence. https://thehill.com/opinion/internat...ghurs-globally

    Erdogan, Putin discuss Libya, Syria's Idlib over phone

    0 Comment(s)Print E-mail Xinhua, June 11, 2020

    Adjust font size:

    Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin on Wednesday discussed developments in Libya and in the Syria's Idlib over the phone, the Turkish Communications Directorate said.

    They also discussed the anti-coronavirus precautions and the measures in the post-pandemic period, the directorate said in a statement.

    Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi announced on June 6 an initiative to end the Libyan conflict following his meeting in Cairo with Libyan east-based military commander Khalifa Haftar.

    Libya has been locked in a civil war since the ouster and killing of the former leader Muammar Gaddafi in 2011. The power has been politically divided between two rival governments: the UN-backed Government of National Accord (GNA) based in the capital Tripoli and a government in the northeastern city of Tobruk allied with the Haftar-led Libyan National Army (LNA).

    Haftar's forces launched a military operation against the GNA and the capital Tripoli in April 2019, before the GNA announced on June 4 the takeover of the entire Tripoli by expelling the rival east-based army.

    Turkey has been supporting and providing military support to the GNA since a military pact was signed between the two sides last November.

    Trump plans to sign bill pressuring China over Uighur Muslim crackdown: source

    3 Min Read

    WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump plans to sign legislation calling for sanctions on Chinese officials responsible for oppressing Uighur Muslims, a source familiar with the matter said on Monday without offering a time frame for the signing.

    The bill, which passed the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate with bipartisan support last month, calls for sanctions against those responsible for repression of Uighurs and other Muslim groups in China’s Xinjiang province, where the United Nations estimates more than a million Muslims have been detained in camps.

    The Chinese embassy in Washington repeated a prior statement noting that the bill “blatantly smears China’s counterterrorism and deradicalization measures and seriously interferes in China’s internal affairs,” which China “deplores and firmly opposes.”

    “We urge the US to immediately rectify its mistake, stop using Xinjiang-related issues to intervene in China’s internal affairs and refrain from going even further down the wrong path,” the embassy added.

    The bill’s progress comes amid growing tensions between Washington and Beijing over the coronavirus pandemic’s origins and a recent Chinese bid to curb Hong Kong freedoms via a new national security law. China denies mishandling the outbreak and has said the United States should stop interfering in Hong Kong and Chinese affairs.

    Trump said last week he was not considering imposing sanctions on Chinese President Xi Jinping personally over Beijing’s push to impose the legislation in Hong Kong. But the Republican president recently ordered his administration to begin eliminating special U.S. treatment for Hong Kong to punish China, and said Washington would also impose sanctions on individuals seen as responsible for “smothering - absolutely smothering - Hong Kong’s freedom.”

    The Uighur legislation, proposed by Republican Senator Marco Rubio, singles out Xinjiang’s Communist Party secretary, Chen Quanguo, a member of China’s powerful Politburo, as responsible for “gross human rights violations” against them.

    Bloomberg earlier on Monday reported news of the bill’s signing. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-u...-idUSKBN23F27C

    Victims' Families Say Uighur Religious Leaders Main Target in China
    ByAsim Kashgarian Sun, 05/24/2020 - 21:18
    6-8 minuten

    WASHINGTON - A Chinese government crackdown on the minority Muslims in Xinjiang has taken a toll on the community’s religious staff with the imams being most vulnerable to persecution, according to Uighur victims’ families and scholars.

    ‘Imam’ is a title in Islam given to a religious staff who leads group prayers at a mosque.

    Uyghur Hjelp, a Norway-based Uighur advocacy and aid organization, told VOA that Chinese authorities since 2016 have detained at least 518 key Uighur religious figures and imams. The organization says it has found some of the imams, who were previously trained and employed by Beijing, are now sentenced with long prison terms while a few of them have lost their lives in internment camps.

    One of the detained imams, Abdurkerim Memet, was sentenced to 10 years in prison in 2017, according to his daughter, Hajihenim Abdukerim in Mecca, Saudi Arabia.

    Abdukerim told VOA that Chinese authorities were hiding the whereabouts of her father for years until recently when a local contact in Xinjiang told her of his imprisonment.

    The 61-year-old was employed by the Chinese government before his detention to lead prayers at a neighborhood mosque in Yengisar county in Kashgar city in southern Xinjiang. His family rejects the Chinese government accusation that he was spreading extremism among the Uighurs.

    “My father is a peaceful and law-abiding religious figure,” said Abdukerim, adding that her father was salaried by the Chinese government until late 2016 when the newly appointed Communist party chief, Chen Quanguo, began to further enforce Beijing’s rule over Xinjiang where, according to the U.N. estimates, over a million Muslims could be held in internment camps.

    “I had never imagined him being imprisoned for serving the community. In these years, I have been only hoping to hear from him again,” she told VOA.

    In April, a spokesperson for China’s Xinjiang autonomous government, Elijan Anayit, accused the U.S. officials and media of spreading “rumors” about the detention and prosecution of Uighur imams.

    Anayit, in an interview with China Global Television Network, said the Chinese government has attached “great importance to the cultivation of Islamic clergies.” He said the government has subsidized Islamic schooling, including Xinjiang Islam Institute which has over 1,000 students throughout its eight branches around the region, including in Ili, Urumqi, Hotan, and Kashgar.

    “The criminals who have been prosecuted are neither religious personages nor religious staff. They are criminals who spread extremism and engage in separation, infiltration, sabotage, and terrorist and extremist activities under the banner of Islam,” said Anayit.

    However, some experts say Chinese officials are increasingly using religious extremism charges to gain a free hand in their campaign against Uighurs and their religious leadership.

    “These crimes have become so vague even before Chinese law,” Rian Thum, a historian of Islam in China at the University of Nottingham, told VOA.

    “They created a long list of illegal religious activities, most of which are not actually illegal things to do in other contexts. For example, to pray at a mosque that is not your hometown mosque can be an illegal religious activity,” Thum said.

    Pursuing imams as the main targets in Xinjiang should not come as a surprise, charged Abduweli Ayup, the founder of Uyghur Hjelp.

    “They are people who can lead, organize, and mobilize Uighurs in large numbers, and mosques are the only places where Uighur language was kept intact,” he added.

    Ayup said the Chinese government was giving the imams salaries ranging from 600 to 5000 RMB before its clampdown campaign in Xinjiang. The detention, he said, is a part of a larger attempt by the Communist party to prevent a flourishing Uighur identity and culture.

    No one is immune

    The cases of arrest against government-employed religious leaders reveal that even those who have rose through the ranks of the Chinese system are not protected from persecution, according to Timothy Grose, a professor of China Studies at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology.

    Locking up the clerics is an effort to sever “the inter-generational transmission of religious knowledge among Uiyghurs,” Grose told VOA.

    According to Gene Bunin, the founder of Xinjiang Victim’s Database, a website dedicated to collecting data information on detained indigenous residents in Xinjiang, the estimated number of arrested imams among some Turkic communities in the region could be up to 50%. Most of them are taken to the detention camps described by Chinese officials as “vocational training centers” set up to de-radicalize people and teach them new work skills.

    “For the reported Kazakhs, imams are about 50% of the victims. For Uighurs, it's very few, up to 10%,” Bunin told VOA, adding that the number of detained Uighur imams could be much higher.

    While imams living in Xinjiang remain most exposed to the Chinese government campaign, those outside are not immune. Families of some Uighur religious figures claim they were possibly tricked into returning to China under false promises.

    False promises

    Meryemgul Abdulla, a Uighur based in Turkey, told VOA that her husband and a religious scholar, Abduhalik Abdulhak, were arrested after returning to China under the false pledge of allowing him to build a museum.

    Abdulhak, a 48-year-old father of five from China and a former graduate of Islamic law from Al-Azhar University in Cairo, Egypt, also worked as a businessman in addition to being a religious leader in his community.

    Abdulla said Abdulhak returned to China in March 2017 after receiving a message purportedly from his brother that his long-awaited application to establish a museum in commemoration of his great uncle and prominent early 20th century Uighur poet, was approved by local authorities in Turpan city in Xinjiang.

    “Soon after he arrived in China, he was taken to a concentration camp in Turpan,” Abdulla told VOA. “I have had no news of him since.”
