Bill on Xinjiang lays bare US hypocrisy

The passage of a so-called act to "protect Xinjiang's human rights" by the US House of Representatives on Tuesday is another US attempt to interfere in China's internal affairs, which deserves condemnation. The United States has wantonly twisted the human rights situation in the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region and leveled baseless charges against the Xinjiang authorities that have been successfully combating terrorism.

This blatant disregard for China's sovereignty once again exposes the US' evil designs in the name of protecting human rights to maintain its global hegemony.

That the Uygur bill is full of stale lies about Xinjiang is evident from its claim that China has a long history of repressing Muslims, particularly the Uygurs, and has systematically discriminated against the minority ethnic groups.
