China on Wednesday, Dec. 4, 2019, has responded with swift condemnation after U.S. Congress overwhelmingly approved a bill targeting its mass crackdown on ethnic Muslim minorities.

BEIJING — China responded with swift condemnation Wednesday after U.S. Congress overwhelmingly approved a bill targeting its mass crackdown on ethnic Muslim minorities, further straining ties after President Donald Trump last week signed separate human rights legislation on Hong Kong. The Uighur Human Rights Policy Act denounces the detention of an estimated 1 million Uighurs, Kazakhs and others in China’s far west Xinjiang region, home to the predominantly Muslim minority groups. It would require the State Department to evaluate whether Chinese officials would meet the criteria for sanctions for their roles in enacting oppressive policies.

The bill “disregards the facts and mixes up black and white,” said the Foreign Affairs Commission of China’s legislature in one among a slew of strongly worded rebukes from government departments. “It is regrettable that U.S. Congress has not only turned a blind eye to Xinjiang’s efforts to combat terrorism and protect human rights in accordance with laws and regulations, but also to Xinjiang’s current economic development, social stability, national unity and religious harmony,” the commission said.

_Europe Atheist Communist China? Why care & persecute Muslim minorities? May be Chinese not atheist & Buddhist like Myanmar & imitating them as they did to Rohingya Muslims! Religion in China? We were on a tour in China & we saw Buddhist shrines everywhere. Xi closet Buddhist?

Remember when every Mustafa, Ali, Hamid and Mohammed was bitching that the west wasn’t doing anything about it? Yeah me too.

Awe. Poor China 😭

the US has no right imposing sanctions on another country for the exact same thing they are doing at the border

Chinese government is Mordor.

'Crackdown' is what they're calling ethnic cleansing now is it?

1million in camps, massive intrusion on family lives, and orders that can prevent renting a house, taking a train, or flying. It is horrid, and deserves approbrium.

China can go fuck itself

It's bullshit not knowing the truth. Learn more about Xinjiang.

Why condemnation the matter should be solved according to the feelings of Muslims living in that area ?

强烈谴责美国的不人道做法

Imagine my surprise.

I thought religion has been illegal in China for a long time.

So

🙏🏻😞

So what China goods are crap. Fill up the landfill.

China can condemn all they want - it's not going to change the West's view of their apalling handling of human rights.

China is literally going full Hitler. TDSers please compare and upgrade your broken minds.

Not to forget occupied FreeTibet.

Crackdown? I think 'genocide' is a better word to conclude what's happening in Xinjiang. StandwithUyghurs

We are the NBA ---Proud sponsor of Communist China

Making the Dec 15th deadline tariffs pretty much a guarantee.

China trying to suppress Muslim radicalisation with rehabilitation meanwhile USA bombing and killing Muslim countries in the middle East creating more radical Islamists.

Crackdown is a weird way to say Genocide.
