WASHINGTON - The US House of Representatives on Tuesday debated a Bill that would require the Trump administration to toughen its response to China's crackdown on its Muslim minority, demanding sanctions on senior Chinese officials and export bans.
China has consistently denied any mistreatment of Uighurs and says the camps are providing vocational training. It has warned of retaliation"in proportion" if Mr Chen were targeted. China responded to that on Monday by saying US military ships and aircraft would not be allowed to visit Hong Kong, and announced sanctions against several US non-government organizations.
Democratic House Leader Nancy Pelosi called China's treatment of the Uighurs"an outrage to the collective conscience of the world.""America is watching," she said.
