According to China Central Television, Mahmoud Abbas met with Chinese Premier Li Qiang, expressed support for all China's policies and positions towards Taiwan and Hong Kong, and said about the East Turkistan issue: "the Xinjiang (East Turkistan) issue is never a human rights issue. It is about fighting terrorism and extremism, eradicating separatism. Palestine is strongly opposed to interference in China's internal affairs for the sake of the Xinjiang (East Turkistan) issue,"he said.
The position of the Palestinian president on the issue of East Turkistan aroused the Turkistan people and the Turkish people, because the people of East Turkistan have been known to stand by the cause of Palestine for a long time. In response to the Palestinian President, the leader of the Nationalist Movement party, Dolat Bahceli, criticizing Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, said: "We have always stood by the oppressed Palestinians, but Mr. Abbas's description of the Turkish Uyghurs as terrorists is shameful for him, Abbas's position is completely rejected.
In addition, the chairman of the board of Palestinian scientists showed " Dr. Nawaf takrury, an opposition reaction to the position of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, published a post on his social media account in which he wrote:
"Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas's description of the oppressed Uyghur people in East Turkistan with terrorism is an incorrect and unjust description and it does not represent our Palestinian people who suffered injustice and faced the oppressors and demanded that all people stand by their side because they are oppressed, our people cannot be with the oppressor against the oppressed.
We, the Palestine Scholars Association, condemn this statement, and consider it unjust against our people in East Turkistan, who have been opressed by the Chinese government, and we tell them that your brothers and your people in Palestine are supporting you, and they are not represented by those who say such statements, as a compliment to your oppressor and bias to the invalidator on the right".
