Where did the Uyghur pilgrims disappear

But in the meantime, the absence of Uyghur pilgrims from East Turkistan has attracted attention. Although in previous periods China used to send Uyghur pilgrims in order to deceive the international community, cover up its crimes and spread its false propaganda, which lies in its claims to follow religious freedom, and it was forcing Uyghurs to say "I am a Chinese citizen".

According to reports on the official website of the so-called "Islamic Society of China", the only official website of the Chinese regime related to Islam, the first Hajj delegation from China this year reportedly arrived at Medina International Airport in Saudi Arabia on May 27 on a chartered plane from Ningxian, and stated that it marked the beginning of the Hajj ceremony to Saudi Arabia, and that the first group of pilgrims consisted of 386 people from Yinchuan, Xizhoushan and other places in Ningxia.

The Chinese consul in Jeddah Wang Qimin, the vice-president and secretary-general of the Chinese Islamic Association, the executive vice-chairman of the Chinese Hajj task force Ma Zhongping went to the airport to welcome the first group of pilgrims, and repeated his statements on such topics as the so-called "kind religious policy" of the CPC, Hajj activities, epidemic prevention and control and safe, organized and civilized pilgrimage.

However, the website does not contain any information about Uyghur pilgrims, but there is only one old news about Uyghur pilgrims in 2016, under the title "the Hajj delegation from Xinjiang started a series of activities to celebrate the National Day". According to the report, although East Turkistan Muslims have gone on hajj with all their life savings, China has also organized a series of so-called "patriotic" activities to celebrate China's National Day in the Holy Land, and did not allow them to perform Hajj without interference. Throughout the pilgrimage, she forced them to organize so-called patriotic events for China's National Day, and forced them to say "I am a Chinese citizen" in interviews about their feelings.

In addition, among the sentences they were forced to say: "we can say that our delegation is the best of all the delegations of the world. After coming to Saudi Arabia, we really felt how strong our country is. We are proud to be Chinese citizens". While another praised the policy of China (forced) by saying: "in recent years, our Turpan region has changed a lot. If you compare it with Saudi Arabia when you visit, you will know that our Turpan region is better than it,"he said. The news report also said that in order to celebrate the so-called "national day" of China, the last gave a speech on the topic under the title "homeland in my heart, I celebrate my country's birthday," and chanted with shouts like: "the homeland is great, long live the homeland!"

At that time, this was used as a shameful false propaganda campaign, as the pilgrims said as they swore: "after returning home, we must make strict demands on ourselves, strive to be good pilgrims with worthy thoughts and deeds, be good citizens who love the country, religion and obey the law, consciously oppose extremist ideas, adhere to integrity, contribute to the harmonious and stable development of Xinjiang (East Turkistan) society with practical measures. Today we don't know where those pilgrims are now or in which concentration camps they are being held.

According to information from Mecca, although a large number of Tunisian pilgrims came from China this year, there were no Uyghurs. In fact, the Saudi Ministry of Hajj determines the number of pilgrims according to the number of Muslims in each country every year, and informs those countries about a thousand people per million inhabitants. The total population of Turkey is almost 85 million, and according to the official statement of the Turkish Directorate of religious affairs, more than 83,000 people will perform the Hajj from Turkey this year.

Accordingly, even if the Chinese authorities calculate the number and declare it to be 11 million to deliberately reduce the number of Uyghurs, at least 11,000 people from East Turkistan should come for the pilgrimage. This includes "Hui" Chinese Muslims and other Muslims throughout China.

But at these moments, with only a few days left for the pilgrimage, the absence of Uyghur pilgrims from East Turkistan despite the severe pressure that China is being subjected to by the international community, once again confirms how strong the policy of genocide and the policy of extermination of religion pursued by the Communist Chinese authorities in East Turkistan is

The statement published on the official website of the Chinese Islamic Society stated that it has selected and sent just over 60 employees to provide comprehensive services such as educational guidance, medical prevention, epidemic prevention, security, catering, transportation, accommodation and visiting pilgrims during this year's Hajj season. It is clear that the figure is very small.

Observers around the world, many states, parliaments, human rights organizations and official reports of the UN have clearly noted that the people of East Turkistan are facing genocide and are being forgotten in the world. In the Hajj season, which is considered the brightest embodiment of the unity of all Muslims, Muslims should raise their voice and make a clear statement against the Chinese regime that deprives the people of East Turkistan of the opportunity to perform Hajj with Muslims from all over the world.
