A US-backed Uighur photo exhibit of dozens of people who are missing or alleged to be held in camps in Xinjiang, China, has opened in Switzerland, prompting Beijing to issue a furious statement accusing Washington of 'low political tricks'.

The 'Wall of the Disappeared' also features interviews with camp survivors about alleged forced sterilisation.A US-backed Uighur photo exhibit of dozens of people who are missing or alleged to be held in camps in Xinjiang, China, opened in Switzerland on Thursday, prompting Beijing to issue a furious statement accusing Washington of "low political tricks".

"It was important for us to bring faces to represent the statistics," said Zumretay Arkin, whose uncle is featured in the exhibit. "It's easier to forget about numbers but if people see faces, we hope they will grasp the urgency of the situation."The United States gave a financial grant for the exhibit, which will later travel to Brussels and Berlin, the World Uyghur Congress told Reuters.

In a statement sent to journalists late on Thursday, China's diplomatic mission in Geneva said Washington was "trying to reap benefits from spreading disinformation about China. It has crossed the rudimentary moral line in bashing others". This week, China's envoy Jiang Duan accused Washington of having committed "genocide" against Native Americans and of "systemic racism" in a sweeping speech.

If those photos from Xinjiang were fakes why can't the CCP prove it to discredit the exhibition? If the CCP has nothing to hide they shouldn't have anything to fear. WHY?

“Furious” statement? I am bloody angry too with usa continued harassment of the Uighurs- debunked over and over and still used by the USA to ramp up their anti China propaganda - and fools still believe it

Anyone with a basically sound mind will not believe that the number of people who have experienced so-called 'genocide' will go from 5 million to 12 million. What a joke.

FFS… please CCP do yourselves a favour you sound like juveniles. If you’re going to use English maybe consider employing someone who actually speaks it. Not someone with a year 2 understanding…..

In most countries using people in forced labour is a criminal act, not a trick. Xinjiang

China is its own worst enemy

How many people are missing everyday in US?

This pact ties Australia to any US military engagement against ChinaIt amounts to dramatic loss of sovereignty, writes the former Australian prime minister. A really dumb move. But what would you expect? Morrison has made it his goal to put us at loggerheads with China since he became PM. Best Prime Minister in my lifetime. But can’t agree with his anti-US, pro-China stance, even though some of the points are valid Australia is tied to any US engagement and Paul Keating knows this.

Australia’s nuclear sub deal ‘gravely undermines regional peace’ says ChinaChina says the new defence pact between Australia, the US and the UK “gravely undermines regional peace and stability”, while branding Australia’s acquisition of nuclear-powered submarines as a damaging setback to global non-proliferation efforts. ... Only if China does aggressive stupid shit Scotty Made it very clear. everyone in AUKUS made it very clear.

China slams Australia's new trilateral security partnershipChinese foreign ministry spokesman Lijian Zhao has declared Australia’s new trilateral security partnership with the United States and the United Kingdom to be “extremely irresponsible” and blamed Canberra for its strained relationship with Beijing. The truth is Australia started all the mess, not China. China is just a upset customer. Hallmark of the Morrison government Full marks in quest for perfect failure. Diplomatic fallout with China France. What a wreckage on top of sexism debacle, vaccine , covid clumsiness ,1 trillion debt , unashamely sexism, consistently failed wars since Vietnam. The US takeover of Australia is almost complete. A walk in the park compared to Afghanistan.

Peter Dutton is a great Defence Minister… I’m not really sure China gets to tell other countries how to run their defence forces. When the most obvious aggressor in the region is, you know, China.
