Concise summary of key research findings on the impact of Beijing's transnational authoritarianism on the Uyghur diaspora in the Foreign Policy essay:

China Is Finding New Ways to Coerce Uyghurs Abroad

[Human Rights Watch @hrw]

The Chinese government is interrogating Uyghur Australians visiting Xinjiang, pressing them to collect information on Uyghurs in Australia.

Chinese authorities demand daily reporting while in Xinjiang, and on their return, pressure them to inform on activists, and monitor community events.

These interrogations and strict monitoring have a chilling effect emblematic of Beijing’s transnational repression in Australia.

In recent years, Beijing has been promoting a false sense of normalcy in Xinjiang: whitewashing its crimes against humanity, exploiting vulnerabilities of separated Uyghur families & menacing the Uyghur diaspora. Here is how: https://t.co/n6zp0vnHZV

Important reporting from @RSF_inter on China's increasing influence in Türkiye's media landscape:

"The Uyghur community in Türkiye fears China’s growing influence will silence their reports and push their voices out of public debate."

Australia is home to a sizeable and vocal Uyghur population who were on the streets demanding to know the whereabouts of their loved ones. But Beijing wants to whitewash its atrocities and silence them even in Australia. My interview with the @abcnews 👇

Another question is why diaspora Uyghurs are do silent: if we are loud like Tibetans, it might be examplorary to our Muslim brothers elswhere!

One month after implementation, China's ‘ethnic unity’ law is already harming Uyghurs and other ethnic groups and dissidents. Governments must take decisive action to challenge the law and protect diaspora communities before it is too late.

Almost one year after he was arrested while in jail, the foreign collusion case of #HongKong activist Joshua Wong has been transferred to the High Court. If convicted, he faces up to life imprisonment.

International governments must take action to end the unjust prosecution of Wong and many others.

中共种族灭绝维吾尔族。

🚨 Forced labour was left out of the King’s Speech, yet it's already embedded in UK supply chains.

This is what just some the evidence shows. 🧵

[Motasem A Dalloul @AbujomaaGaza]

No calls for investigations into the murder of Uyghurs Muslim scholar Abdul Ahad Khaddam inside Chinese jails..

No one cares about the suffering of Muslims😢

[End Forced Labour Fashion @forcdlabourfash]

Last week, @AUTWA4, Human Rights Law Centre & Maurice Blackburn Lawyers went to court to demand accountability from @Kmart. No company should profit from forced labour. Australian companies must come clean about their suppliers and connections to Uyghur forced labour.

[Yalkun Uluyol @YalkunUluyol]

Uyghurs who were on these tours reported being forced to take part in propaganda activities, such as being provided a script – with pinyin, or phonetic, notations for those not fluent in Mandarin Chinese – praising the Communist Party for its policies. https://t.co/XDfvIVpNFX

[Yalkun Uluyol @YalkunUluyol]

Chinese government organized another propaganda tour for Uyghurs. Why 1) do they need such program to reunite with their loved ones? 2) have they not been able visit home for a decade? 3) is Beijing making a big fuss about it?

I interviewed such Uyghurs👇

Excruciating to know Ekpar is spending another (9) birthday in China’s prison camp. While preaching “international law,” Beijing is defying a @UN decision calling for Elpar’s unconditional release. From Iran to Egypt to Belarus, authoritarian governments have freed political prisoners—China chooses torture and impunity.
