, and attempts to erase their culture and Muslim faith,” Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in a statement.
The measures imposed against senior Chinese officials come as President Donald Trump has increasingly sought to blame China for the spread of COVID-19 in the United States and beyond and accuse his presumptive challenger in November’s election, former Vice President Joe Biden, of being soft on China.
In recent years, the Chinese government has detained an estimated 1 million or more ethnic Turkic minorities. The ethnic minorities are held in internment camps and prisons where they are subjected to ideological discipline, forced to denounce their religion and language and physically abused. China has long suspected the Uighurs, who are mostly Muslim, of harboring separatist tendencies because of their distinct culture, language and religion.
China says Xinjiang has long been its territory and claims it is bringing prosperity and development to the vast, resource-rich region. Many among Xinjiang’s native ethnic groups say they are being denied economic options in favor of migrants from elsewhere in China and that their Muslim faith and unique culture and language are being gradually eradicated.
Very mild rebuke. Hit China where it hurts the most: stop technology theft and transfer, move manufacturing somewhere else, consider letting Japan re-arm, ,

A 'financial war' with China could be brewing on top of the trade warU.S. regulators have long sought more transparency from Chinese companies with shares trading on U.S. exchanges. Trump will be in way over his head Requiring Chinese companies to abide by securities and financial regulations like every American company does IS NOT WAR. It is called level the playing field. the issues (i.e. fraud, transparency, etc) raised by the article are certainly worth mentioning, but it seems the article and similar ones kind of obscure the overall picture of Chinese stocks listed in the US since many high profile Chinese stocks have been performing very well
