The East Turkistan Government in Exile (ETGE) has rejected a proposal for Uyghurs to migrate from China\u2019s Xinjiang region to Turkiye, calling it a move that aligns with Beijing\u2019s agenda, Indian newspaper The Tribune reported Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The proposal, put forward by Professor Erhan Afyoncu, president of Turkiye\u2019s National Defense University, was criticized by ETGE as a step towards depopulating East Turkistan and facilitating its colonization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a statement on its official website, the group argued that the plan would contribute to what it describes as China\u2019s broader policies of ethnic cleansing and occupation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
