President Biden Calls Uyghur Genocide In Xinjiang “Different Norm”

In comments issued by the East Turkistan Government in Exile, the democratically elected representatives of East Turkistan (Xinjiang) and its people, US President Joe Biden has been slammed for his recent comments seeking to justify China’s ongoing genocide of Uyghurs and other Turkic peoples

In a press release sent out to the media, authorities representing the oppressed peoples of northwest China said “We demand President Biden apologize to the victims of China’s aggression, the victims of genocide, the countless Uyghur and other Turkic women who are systematically raped and sterilized, and the countless Turkistanis who are killed for their organs.

If President Biden has any moral decency and is faithful to his promises of upholding human rights and human dignity, he should lead the U.S. and the international community to ACT immediately to end this ongoing genocide.

Statements of “concern” and political PR are not enough; the Uyghurs and other Turkic peoples of East Turkistan are being killed as we speak.”

By calling the globally accepted genocide in China being perpetrated against the Uyghurs a “different norm” — despite his own State Department this month responding to “atrocities” in the camps, President Biden is treading a very dangerous path of appeasement with Beijing – one that will be noticed immediately in Taiwan, Tibet and Hong Kong.

The Prime Minister went on to add “Hitler attempted to create a ‘Greater Reich’ through aggression, invasion of neighboring countries, and the Holocaust of millions of Jews and others. Xi Jinping is doing the same thing today and must be stopped.”
“Culturally, there are different norms that each country and their leaders are expected to follow,” President Biden said at his Town Hall meeting Tuesday.
