• Demand for Chen Quanguo to step down and be put under trial for ‘crimes against humanity’

August 29, 2020 marks the 4th anniversary of Chen Quanguo succeeding to the position of Communist Party Secretary of Xinjiang. He has been the architect of the mass genocide aimed at Uyghurs, Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, and other Turkic people in the East Turkestan region.

There has been no action taken against this perpetrator of ‘crimes against humanity’. He continues to carry out the tyrannical reign of suppressing people in the region with no consequences for his actions whatsoever.

Chen Quanguo is guilty of the following crimes committed against the Uyghurs, Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, and other Turkic people which should be investigated:

• massacres;
• mass internment camps;
• torture;
• disappearances;
• forced birth control and sterilization;
• forcible transfer of children from their families to Chinese state orphanages and boarding schools;
• measures aimed at eliminating the use of the Uyghur and other Turkic languages in schools;
• enhanced surveillance of Uyghurs and other Turkic peoples significantly beyond that experienced by Han Chinese;
• repressive measures against Islam; and,
• organ harvesting.

This movement is being supported strongly by the Central Tibetan Administration and the Falun Dafa Association- both associations having been victims of Chen Quanguo & Xi Jinping’s monstrous plans of mass social engineering.

Chen Quanguo was earlier the Communist Party Secretary of Tibet Autonomous Region where he implemented a new security policy for Tibet in the form of “convenience police stations” and constant surveillance. His reign is Tibet also saw the killings, arbitrary arrests, extrajudicial killings, rapes, torture for the Tibetan people.

The protestors demand that Chen Quanguo and Xi Jinping be brought under trial under ‘crimes against humanity’ according to international laws and demand the freedom for East Turkestan from the Chinese Government.

The speakers will mention the importance of the ‘Never Again’ Vow after the Nuremberg Trials.

History of East Turkistan:

East Turkistan has been an independent nation at various points in history. The last time it was independent was from 1944 – 1949 when it was known as the East Turkistan Republic. Communist China invaded East Turkistan in late 1949 with the support of Stalin and the Soviet Union. It is a resource-rich region and has in recent years formed a key part of the new Chinese Belt and Road trade route. The Chinese Government has explicitly stated that one of its key National Defence aims it to prevent “the creation of East Turkistan”.
