LONDON - Britain should not engage in free trade with countries that abuse human rights, but proposals that the country’s courts should decide whether genocide has been committed by trade partners is flawed, foreign minister Dominic Raab said.Last week, Raab said Britain would introduce new rules for its companies to try to prevent goods linked to China’s Xinjiang region entering their supply chains.
“The bar is being set incredibly high,” Raab told BBC television on Sunday. “I mean, frankly, we shouldn’t be engaged in free-trade negotiations with countries abusing human rights well below the level of genocide.” “I think there’s a second issue, which is really in relation to what we now know about what’s going on in Xinjiang, the question is whether, in relation to any country that engaged in those human rights abuses, you engage in free-trade negotiations,” he said.
Addressing parliament last week, Raab said there was evidence of forced labour among Muslim Uighurs in Xinjiang after the United Nations estimated at least 1 million members of the minority among others were held in internment camps.
China must be not allowed in any form to do business with any entity in America.We know the Bidens have obtained hundreds of millions from China.China has great influence with the biden administration and the evidence is concrete not subjective.
wonder how many countries will be left to trade with after those are filtered out. maybe just a handful of European countries... so why did you exit the EU, again?
Stop Trade with the main abusers ex China
Okay, first who can define right abusers, second, after leaving EU and then block China, then only US is left. But when only hv one big trade partner, every one knows what will happen. Good luck Raab
In which case we wouldn't make trade deals with anyone. Every country in the world, including the UK, abuses somebody's rights.
🤣That's a good one, since the UK government are abusing human rights. ... And all the other rights including the right to freedom to move and work in another country, worker rights, et cetra.
The country that goes everywhere to kill, rape and steal under the guise of colonization. Still kill, rape and steal today under the guise of spreading democracy. The UK banks and economy is filled with stolen money, laundered money etc. UK is now talking about rights, stupid.
I moving to UK. Bump America. We are about to inaugurate a scared cat.
Yawn. 🙄 I'll believe DominicRaab when he puts China top on the list of States not to do business with. The UK talks a good game, best to look at their actions rather than mere rhetoric.
The whole UK is a big concentration camp. Even totalitarian country like Singapore won't abuse its citizen like the UK does.
But it's ok to sell weapons to Saudi Arabia to be used against women and children in Yemen. What a world.
That means UK is meant to trade with Europe which they just broke up with... humm interresting..

So not America or themselves!
They would do a deal with devil, if it we're possible, to get them out of the mess they have got us into.
The day Raab criticises HSBC and Standard Chartered. It might be able to be taken seriously.
Brazil will be out then
So with nobody! 😂😂😂😂
Pakistan deserves fta
USA? France? UK itself ? Who define this 'right abuser' ?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! They’re all we’ll have left to trade with! We’ve spat in the faces of liberal democracies! Are we not gonna trade with China? With Russia?! Brexit has damned us to work with human rights abusers.
But they still actively trade with Saudi Arabia and Israel
So I guess the U.S. is not an option, then. TrumpTreason
China and Saudi Arabia:
So UK mustn't do trade deals with USA?

UK could become 'a failed state' without reform, former UK PM Brown saysUnless the United Kingdom is fundamentally reformed it could swiftly become a failed state as many people have lost faith in the way the country is governed by, and in the interests of, a London-centric elite, former Prime Minister Gordon Brown said. Wow this exactly speech like Africa and other countries 😅🤣 It is really is now “Unless the United Kingdom gold reserves are fundamentally restructured it could swiftly lose a fortune as many people have lost faith in the commodity so as part of a London-centric elite as Prime Minister I’ve instructed it ALL be sold at it’s lowest EVER point.” Gordon Brown.
