Xinjiang

Out of fear of destabilizing its relations with Beijing, the Thai government has failed to protect Uyghur civilians who have sought political asylum in the country.

Lawyers representing the Uyghurs will argue that the British government's inaction breaches existing U.K. laws prohibiting goods made in foreign prisons or linked to crime.

The legacy of the outgoing U.N. human rights chief has been defined by her dithering and inaction over the Chinese government's abuses in Xinjiang.

Three years after fleeing China, an ethnic Kazakh man continues to struggle to find a safe place to land.

Instead, while the world slept, Chinese authoritarianism metastasized.

Where is the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights’ report detailing human rights violations against Uyghurs?

"Every person in Xinjiang is documented down to their genetic makeup, the sound of their voice, and whether they enter their homes through the front door or the back."

A group of researchers recently compiled as much information as they could on Chinese efforts to render Uyghurs back to China -- they’ve only exposed the tip of the iceberg.

Several activists well-known for picketing the Chinese consulate in Almaty have reportedly been detained in Kazakhstan.

Ethnic Kazakhs who fled Xinjiang are caught in an awkward vortex of domestic politics, international pressures, and the legacies of ethnicity and nationalism in Kazakhstan. 

Experts note that the tightening birth control measures must be understood in the broader context of fear that's pervasive among Xinjiang's minorities.
