Turkey demands China close camps after reports of musician's death

[beijingwalker]

Now we can see Turkey is picking a fight with China, Russia, US, EU and Saudis, many of those fights can be avoided, what kind of govenrment in their sane mind will do something like this?? China is also having fights with some coutries but those fights were imposed on us, we never intended to fight them, cause the west see us as their biggest threat and challenge so they are after us no matter what. but I don't understand why Turkey has to fight every heavyweight on this planet.

Come on now, it's nowhere an insult. Just bitter truth.



You can't treat people like dogs just because nobody says anything around yo. What China should do is to stop opress Uighurs and that's all.

We treat Uighur way better than most Muslim countries treating their citizens.

Does Turkey know that their demands are not helping Uighur, only breeds hatreds and distrust between different ethnic groups in Xinjiang and may cause trouble in this now quiet and peaceful place . Of course if that's exactly what Turkey is trying to do, then that'll be another story.


Turkey should think about why China can have very cordial friendship with all those Stan countries around Xinjiang, which share way more closer cultural and blood ties with the ethnic groups in Xinjiang than Turkey does.

All surrounding Stan countries are China's best friends and allies, we never have any problems with them about Xinjiang, is it really a wise policy for Turkey to pick a fight with China, which is thousands of miles away from it?

If Turkey doesn't give up their fantasy of Pan Turkistanism, it will have trouble with not only China , but many central Asian countries in the future. Those central Asian countries dislike that idea as well

You are living in a fantasy world wher you imagine enemies. You are oppressing Turks, and nobody is telling you to give land, give that people ther rights thats is all. Your neighbours are miserable situation, they are now all not in a shape to talk. But time will change, this is geopolitical world. Thirty years ago China was a waste, the west have invested in China, but when west realise that you are a threat they will change ther opinion about you. And that miserable neighbours will change ther side. So that miserable neighbours don't count. And we don't care to what ther opinion are.

OK, If you are so determined to fight China, be our guest, bring it on, China is economically and militarily capable to take this challenge.

Don't forget your GDP is smaller even than our Guangdong province.

My suggestion to Turkish government, if you do want to pick a fight with all world powers, US, EU, Russia, China and Saudis to a lesser extent, pick them one by one, don't take on all of them at same time as what you are doing now.

Based on global IQ ranking chart mine is very likely higher than yours. China never wants trouble or fight with Turkey, it's your country always looks for trouble, and if there's really a trouble, fight it yourslef, don't count on others cause no one really trusts a country which repeatedly plays double games.

Turkey demands China close camps after reports of musician's death

@damm1t @Nein @MMM-Æ @Islamic faith&Secularism @CAN_TR

Turkey has called on China to close its detention camps following the reported death of a renowned musician from the ethnic Uighur minority.

Abdurehim Heyit is thought to have been serving an eight-year sentence in the Xinjiang region, where a million Uighurs are reportedly being detained.

A statement from Turkey's foreign ministry said they were being subjected to "torture" in "concentration camps".

China says the facilities are re-education camps.

The Uighurs are a Muslim Turkic-speaking minority based in the north-west Xinjiang region of China, which has come under intense surveillance by Chinese authorities.

What did Turkey say?
In a statement issued on Saturday, foreign ministry spokesman Hami Aksoy said: "It is no longer a secret that more than a million Uighur Turks exposed to arbitrary arrests are subjected to torture and political brainwashing" in prisons, adding that those not detained were "under great pressure".

"The reintroduction of concentration camps in the 21st century and the systematic assimilation policy of Chinese authorities against the Uighur Turks is a great embarrassment for humanity," Mr Aksoy said.

He also said the reports of Heyit's death "further strengthened the Turkish public's reaction to the serious human rights violations in Xinjiang" and called on UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres "to take effective steps to end the human tragedy" there.

Beijing claims that the detention camps in Xinjiang are "vocational education centres" designed to help rid the region of terrorism.

Speaking last October, the top Chinese official in Xinjiang, Shohrat Zakir, said "trainees" in the camps were grateful for the opportunity to "reflect on their mistakes".

Rights groups say Muslims are being detained indefinitely without charge for infractions like refusing to give a DNA sample, speaking in a minority language, or arguing with officials.

What do we know about Heyit's fate?
Amnesty International said it was very concerned about reports of his death, which has not been officially confirmed.

Heyit was a celebrated player of the Dutar, a two-stringed instrument that is notoriously hard to master. At one time, he was venerated across China. He studied music in Beijing and later performed with national arts troupes.

Heyit's detention reportedly stemmed from a song he performed titled Fathers. It takes its lyrics from a Uighur poem calling on younger generations to respect the sacrifices of those before them.

But three words in the lyrics - "martyrs of war" - apparently led Chinese authorities to conclude that Heyit presented a terrorist threat.

Who are the Uighurs?

The Uighurs make up about 45% of the population in Xinjiang.

They see themselves as culturally and ethnically close to Central Asian nations, and their language is similar to Turkish.

In recent decades, large numbers of Han Chinese (China's ethnic majority) have migrated to Xinjiang, and the Uighurs feel their culture and livelihoods are under threat.

Xinjiang is officially designated as an autonomous region within China, like Tibet to its south.

what are they going to do about it ? a Turkish military intervention in china

When we show your ignorance you are talking about war.

 

[Agnihotra]

If Turkey is smart enough to set up "re-education" camp, they and Kurds wouldn't have to kill each other for years. The same goes to Indian vs Kashmiris.

As an Indian, I agree. We need re education camps in Kashmir for benefitspf local people.
