Lanzhou Mosque Demolition Raises Alarms on China’s Policies

The Lanzhou Xiguan Mosque, a revered symbol of cultural heritage in China’s Gansu province, is facing a perilous fate due to the state’s “sinicization” campaign. The website “Global Village Space” reported that this policy, prioritizing socialist principles over cultural preservation, has triggered outrage as the historic mosque is now subject to covert demolition.

Despite international concerns and local dissent, the Chinese Communist Party remains unyielding, reflecting a broader suppression of religious freedom and dissent within the nation. The incident underscores growing worries about the erosion of cultural and historical landmarks in China.
