CBP has said it is ready to implement the law's"rebuttable presumption" that all goods from Xinjiang, where Chinese authorities established detention camps for Uighurs and other Muslim groups, are made with forced labour and barred from import unless it can be proven otherwise.
"We are rallying our allies and partners to make global supply chains free from the use of forced labour, to speak out against atrocities in Xinjiang, and to join us in calling on the government of the PRC to immediately end atrocities and human rights abuses," Mr Blinken said in a statement.

Last week, CBP issued a list of Xinjiang entities presumed to be using forced labour, which includes textile, solar-grade polysilicon, and electronics companies.
