It was also reported that the Chinese invaders plan to turn East Turkistan into an important station and trading center area within the scope of the "One Belt One Road", and plan to establish an international trade center near the city of Korla in East Turkistan in 2018, and currently the project has been completed and international trade has begun.

Observers stated that with the implementation of the "One Belt, One Road" plan, the Chinese regime is trying to turn East Turkistan into China, which is an important node in this road, and exploit its natural resources, in addition to forcing it to Sinicize East Turkistan. People in slavery, China intensify their foreign trade activities through the products of slave labor and plundered resources. However, they also tried to hide and legitimize the genocide by claiming that the people of East Turkهstan are extremist terrorists, and in this case, all countries that have trade relations with China are accomplices to the East Turkistan genocide.

In December 2021, the US Congress passed a law banning the importation into the United States of goods produced by the forced labor of Uyghur Turks living in East Turkistan and other ethnic and religious groups. The Washington administration made decisions to penalize the companies that were the subject of the allegations and the companies that worked with them.

Spokesmen for the Beijing government called the allegations of forced labor "lies made up by anti-Chinese forces" and argued that the human rights situation in the country was trying to distort the truth.

According to a report by the Australian Institute for Strategic Research (ASBI), Uyghur Muslims are used as slave labor in the supply of goods to more than 100 countries and 83 well-known brands.
