100 countries support China on human rights amid US-led smears against China over Xinjiang at UN session

Every expansion leads to mass killing and deportation.

Like the one going on in the Gaza strip by Israel which the west is adamantly supporting and aiding?

Like that.

Like in the Rakhine State.

And like many others.

Hidden Parallels: The Impact of Beijing’s Policies on the Rohingya Crisis

[Excerpt]

​

Parallels​

There are obvious parallels in the plight of the two groups both as Muslim minorities faced with the state-sponsored suppression of their culture and safety, and victims of Chinese government policy. The conditions facing the Rohingya and Uighurs, and the subsequent limited actions taken by the international community, reflect the influence of China’s preferred non-interference norms. Beijing appears to perceive international intervention against Myanmar’s crackdown on the Rohingya not just in the context of backlash against an ally but as impacting China’s domestic and regional stability regarding its own minorities.

A recent decision in the International Criminal Court (ICC) exemplifies the Rohingya issue’s potential impact on China’s interests. Just like China, Myanmar refused to join the ICC, in theory limiting the ICC’s jurisdiction. However, the ICC broadened its judicial reach into Myanmar by acting on behalf of Rohingya in Bangladesh, an ICC member state. The court determined that it may exercise its jurisdiction over crimes so long as some of the criminal conduct occurs in a territory or state party to the ICC. The Court then found enough evidence to argue that “widespread and/or systematic acts of violence may have been committed” against the Rohingya across the Myanmar-Bangladesh border. The ICC is organizing a fact-finding mission for the case which is ongoing.

The risk of international pressure on China is genuine. In theory, a similar strategy to the one deployed in Bangladesh could be used against China. Many Uighurs have been forcibly deported from Cambodia and Tajikistan, both ICC members, back to China. Indeed, British lawyers representing two Uighur organizations filed cases against the Chinese government in the ICC. Furthermore, if UN fact-finding missions regarding the situation lead states and international organizations to declare the situation a genocide, this could set a precedent for UN investigations of China. Either of these actions would threaten China’s position in Asia and also the CCP’s domestic authority beyond Xinjiang, such as in Tibet or Hong Kong. Given this connection, the rationale behind Beijing attempting to keep the Rohingya situation a “domestic” issue makes perfect sense from the CCP’s perspective.

Kangaroo court, why don't they prosecute the war criminals for waging wars and human rights violations in conducting wars in Iraq, Syria and Afghan for examples.
