China’s global Uyghur repression campaign far broader than thought, book claims

Published April 25, 2022 8:51pm ET



The Chinese Communist Party’s global repression campaign against Uyghur Muslims is even broader than previously known, a new book contends, with more than 5,500 Uyghurs abroad targeted for intimidation, along with thousands detained and hundreds sent back to China.

The Trump administration determined, and the Biden administration reaffirmed, that the United States believes the CCP is conducting an “ongoing genocide” against the Uyghurs and other religious and ethnic minorities in Xinjiang. The FBI has repeatedly warned about China’s “Operation Fox Hunt” — a global extrajudicial repatriation aimed at forcing Uyghurs and other Chinese dissidents abroad to return to China. A new book sheds even more light on the CCP’s Uyghur repression.
