Officials of the propaganda department in East Turkistan held a special meeting, specifically emphasizing their plan to continue their false propaganda from multiple comprehensive points about beautifying and covering up genocide crimes.
According to the Chinese propaganda site Tengri Tag, propaganda department officials in the so-called "Uyghur Autonomous Region" held a special meeting on February 7, attended by Ma Xingrui, Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party Committee in East Turkistan, and pro-Chinese agent President Erkin Tuniyaz. The meeting indicated that genocide crimes would continue this year as well.
Reports stated that the meeting was attended by propaganda department officials from party committees in various states, regions, and cities in East Turkistan and other relevant officials. Subsidiary meeting sites were also established throughout East Turkistan.
During the meeting, Ma Xingrui referred to strengthening the concealment of ongoing genocide crimes in East Turkistan from the international community, saying, "A discursive system and effective means must be established from multiple comprehensive points showing the commonalities of Chinese culture and historical facts of integration, exchange, and mixing between different nationalities."
Agent official Erkin Tuniyaz said in his speech during the meeting, "We must deeply push forward Xinjiang's cultural nourishment, work well on public opinion guidance, and establish a common spiritual space for Chinese nationality."
At the conclusion of the meeting, Wang Jianshen, head of the propaganda department in the so-called "Uyghur Autonomous Region," emphasized phrases such as "We must manage well the initiative battle in external propaganda and media conflict related to Xinjiang, firmly protect ideological domain security, and strive to create a new situation in Xinjiang's propaganda, thought, and cultural work," indicating an intensification of false propaganda campaigns directed externally.
Since the beginning of Chinese occupation, China has suppressed the people of East Turkistan under various pretexts and in recent years has been practicing genocide under the name of "strengthening awareness of common Chinese national identity" and "nourishment from Chinese culture." Along with forcibly imposing Chinese culture, it is intensifying and implementing plans to distort, change, and erase Uyghur history and culture.
According to China's plan to erase Uyghur national identity and distort their history, at the beginning of 2024, they expanded the so-called "Xinjiang Museum" to nearly triple its original size. More than 1,500 so-called "cultural relics" have been displayed, aimed at showing distorted history such as "East Turkistan being part of China since ancient times." Various tourist points have also been systematically organized and used to deceive foreign tourists.
