Ask those who actually visited Xinjiang. Western lies are already exposed.

Can you please stop lying about us? We are not ETIM sponsored by the west. We are fine, thank you for actually asking us personally!

Ask those who actually visited Xinjiang!

Seriously, debate this first.

By the way

Business before brother for Pakistan and Indonesia.

For real serious HR abuses, try the string of wars for lies of the U.S. and its adjuncts to regime change those so selected by the 'exceptionals', and the treatment of those, like Assange, who publish these abuses.

both Indonesia &Pakistan are begging for Chinese loans so both are quiet

Hilarious.

Apparently these two countries know very well thatMalicious attacks, lying, slander, insults and spreading rumors about China's human rights situation must be banned. Well done 👍

Is that the UN report that found no evidence of mistreatment but that it was still possible? ABC is beating the American bias drum again. Despite $500M up for grabs no one has come forward with any abuse. Put $50K up for American abuses and the net would crash

‘More must be done’ to expose how ‘deeply China has its tentacles’ in Pacific regionSky News host Peta Credlin says even though Russian President Vladimir Putin's threat of nuclear warfare is currently a main concern, Australia should be aware of what China is doing in the Indo-Pacific. Ms Credlin said a new report highlights the Chinese government's “sustained attempts to subvert the leadership” in the Solomon Islands in an attempt to build a naval base – which would be “capable of interrupting the shipping lanes between Australia and the United States”. “According to a report from the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, print and social media in the Solomons increasingly claims that the government's security agreement with Beijing is a necessary response to ‘colonialist bullies’,” she said. “More must be done to expose just how deeply China has its tentacles into some Pacific leaders, if we are to avoid a hostile military base on our doorstep.” Anyone asked Kermit the Frog what be thinks? The only way to prevent this was strong diplomacy. Instead we had ministers joking about islands drowning because of sea level rise. The Libs caused this mess through a decade of sheer hubris and it's too late to stop it now. A new report shows that Malicious attacks, lying, slander, insults and spreading rumors are important daily tasks of Sky lying 🤥 fake News.
