Latest: A Kazakh man who fled #China's #Xinjiang in 2019 was arrested in Ukraine's western border town Lviv, as he tried to cross into Poland and reach Germany to seek political asylum. He now faces the possible fate of being deported back to #China. dw.com/zh/%E5%93%88%E…
The 23-year-old Yilisen Aierken arrived in Ukraine in mid October, but he lost his travel documents on October 21. He originally wanted to go to the Chinese consulate and seek new copies of his travel documents. But he was afraid of being deported back to #Xinjiang.
He contacted @Atajurt_HR after he was arrested and the founder of Atajurt, Serikzhan Bilash, immediately reached out to U.N. officials in Kazakhstan as well as U.S. and German diplomats in the country, hoping they could help negotiate Aierken's freedom with Ukrainian officials.

#China
extends its crackdown in #Xinjiang
beyond its borders and intimidates #Uyghurs, #Kazakhs and others overseas. All countries hosting members of the
#Uyghur diaspora should take measures to protect them.

Amnesty International has interviewed ex-detainees of the internment camps and Uyghurs living abroad who reported that they have missing friends or family members in Xinjiang. Their testimonies corroborate the news reports about what is happening in Xinjiang.

Met with survivors and family members of China's campaign of repression and mass detention against #Uighurs, ethnic #Kazakhs, and other members of minority groups in #Xinjiang. I call on China to end these counterproductive policies and release all arbitrarily detained.
China has detained more than one million #Uighurs, ethnic #Kazakhs, and other #Muslim minorities in internment camps in #Xinjiang since April 2017. The U.S. stands with them and their family members. China must release all those arbitrarily detained and end its repression.
The world cannot afford China’s shameful hypocrisy toward Muslims. On one hand, China abuses more than a million Muslims at home, but on the other it protects violent Islamic terrorist groups from sanctions at the UN.
