US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says the Trump administration is troubled by reports of China harassing Uighur Muslim families - a statement that is sure to anger Beijing.

The United States remains deeply troubled by multiple reports that the Chinese government has"harassed, imprisoned, or arbitrarily detained" family members of Uighur Muslim activists and survivors of Xinjiang internment camps who have made their stories public, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says.

Troubled by reports of family members of Uighur activists being targeted by Chinese authorities. Sad to hear of the death of Zumrat Dawut's father who was recently detained and interrogated. Zumrat, thanks for sharing your story with the world and my sincere condolences.China has been widely condemned for setting up complexes in remote Xinjiang that it describes as"vocational training centres" to stamp out extremism and give people new skills.

People from the Uighur community living in Turkey carry flags of what ethnic Uighurs call East Turkestan.In his statement, Pompeo referred to several individuals whose families he said were directly impacted by the Chinese government's treatment of Uighurs, including Zumrat Dawut, who was one of the speakers at an event in New York on the sidelines of United Nations General Assembly in September.

Well.. personal opinion. China would simply got irritated by literally everything. They trust no one and show mercy to no one They treat every others as an enemy. Thus they think that all other countries would be as paranoid and hostile as they are. They won't be convinced.

Even Trump is afraid of telling the truth in Uighur and support the universal value? antichinazi

Without international community attention to Hong Kong, CCP would send liberate army for long time ago & send Hong Kong people to concentration camps. StandWithHongKong FreeHongKong

🇺🇸 has the power to make 🇨🇳 accountable for humanity. BoycottChina and sanction the ruthless abusers of human rights. Please stop the genocide of Uyghurs before its too late

China: this is our inner affairs. No. This is enough.

Every evildoing of China was denied or covered up like the Uyghurs in Xinjiang & Thousands HK civilians might be massacred, murdered, raped or tortured by HKPolice. Please SaveUyghur & pass HKHumanRightsandDemocracyAct.

The situation in Uighur should be concerned. Human rights are deprived. Today Uighur. Next the world. googleuyghurs

Sorry, who harassing who?

CCP will pay for its crime against Uyghur, Tibetan, HongKonger and every Chinese.

Yes! The US should stand up against China’s frequent violations of basic human rights

Harassing? Torturing will be a much better word to describe what ccp have done to these poor Uighur Muslim chinazi china Totalitarianism

I would say it's Genocide of Uyghurs Those Uyghurs did nothing wrong, but CCP just pick on them, sending them to concentration camps, organ harvesting, brainwashing the young children CCP is just a control freak SaveUyghur antichinazi

Secretary Pompeo , what you can see from report is tip of the iceberg of human rights abuse for Uyghurs in Xinjiang. CCP is an expert in cover up

The situation in Uighur should be concerned. Human rights are deprived. Today Uighur. Next the world. googleuyghurs

billy_zero0x Harassing? A million people in internment camps isn't harassment. Beijing should be thrilled that Pompeo is giving them cover.

While China steps up it's totalitarian reign of communism, Australian PM ScottMorrisonMP seals a new trade deal to make China even stronger.. I hate to say it, but the West needs to disengage with this disgusting government.
