China: Government Commended Works in Xinjiang Detention Camps

Chinese Government ventures up the effort to clarifying its accomplishments in the area home to Muslim minorities. China’s counter-terrorism oppression and de-radicalization endeavours in its far western area of Xinjiang ought to be commended for making the strategy for handling the issue, a senior spokesperson told foreign envoys a week ago. Chinese officials briefed diplomats from more than 80 countries and international organizations in Beijing on Friday about Xinjiang, the foreign ministry said on Sunday.
The government undertook its discretionary effort over disputable detainment camps in the vigorously Muslim district, welcoming progressively outside negotiators to visit as it looks to take off analysis from Muslim-larger part countries and at the United Nations. The government says the camps are re-education and training facilities and have been highly successful in stopping attacks previously blamed on Islamist militants and separatists, but rights groups say they are internment camps. The Xinjiang deputy governor, Erkin Tuniyaz, and deputy foreign minister, Zhang Hanhui, explained Xinjiang’s “development achievements” and their “preventive counter-terrorism and de-extremism work” to the gathering, the ministry said.“China will continue to make its due contribution towards the global fight against terrorism” he added.
The diplomats said China’s explanation had helped them understand Xinjiang, that what China was doing there was important for the rest of the world in combating terrorism, and that the “successful experience in Xinjiang was worth studying and drawing on,” the ministry added.
