On the Dutch news they did a report on Rebiya Kadeer, the chairwoman of The World Uyghur Congress.
She is also known as the 'mother of the Uyghurs'.
Almost two weeks ago she visited the Dutch parliament and talked with members of the Socialist Party and GreenLeft (which ironically in the past used be pro-China).
They supported her in her claims that Uyghurs are suppressed in China.
My question to the Chinese members is:
Do you know Rebiya Kadeer? And how is she perceived in China?
Because I found it strange that someone whom I (and probably the majority of people in The Netherlands) have never heard of could get so easy access to the Dutch parliament and make a case for her cause.
This made me think that she is probably important among Uyghurs.
So does she have a lot of influence among the Uyghur people?
And if you do not think so, why do you think that the Dutch parliament gave her a chance to speak?
