The Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights has called on China to review its policies related to human rights abuses in East Turkistan.
According to Voice of America, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights said on August 27 that China should conduct a comprehensive review of the "problematic laws and policies" that have caused concern among the international community.
August 31st is the two-year anniversary of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights' release of an important report on human rights violations in East Turkistan. On August 27, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights released an updated version of the report. According to reports, a UN delegation visited China in June this year and held talks with relevant authorities, focusing on so-called "anti-terrorist" policies and the criminal justice system.
Although this issue was discussed, the report emphasized that the international community still has strong concerns about the laws and policies being implemented in East Turkistan. The UN has once again called on China to comprehensively review its national security and anti-terrorism legal system from a human rights perspective.
UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Turk's spokeswoman, Ravina Shamdasani, was interviewed by Voice of America and talked about continuing to pay attention to human rights issues in East Turkistan. He stressed that there are still many problematic laws and policies in East Turkistan, so the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights once again called for a comprehensive review of the national security and anti-terrorism legal system from the perspective of human rights.
Volker reportedly called on China to respect human rights in Tibet and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.
