A Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson on Tuesday rebuked certain foreign politicians and media for fabricating lies about so-called “genocide” and “forced labor” in Xinjiang.
Wang Wenbin made the remarks at a press briefing in response to comments made by some Canadian, Britain and Turkish politicians on Xinjiang affairs.
Canada’s House of Commons passed a motion on Monday saying China’s treatment of the Uygur Muslim minority in the Xinjiang region constitutes “genocide.” While the Chinese spokesperson said, China has lodged stern representations with the Canadian side.
