Uyghur Muslims face mass atrocities, if not genocide, at the hands of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). With Chairman Xi Jinping visited Saudi Arabia last week to meet with Arab leaders, these Muslim-majority countries had an opportunity to advocate for oppressed Muslims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
China\u2019s abuse of Uyghur Muslims is well documented, but unfortunately, most Muslim-majority nations have been silent. Indisputable evidence from the United Nations documented a war against faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In August 2022, the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) issued an assessment on human rights in Xinjiang. Months in the making, it found:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSerious human rights violations have been committed in XUAR in the context of the Government\u2019s application of counter-terrorism and counter-\u2018extremism\u2019 strategies”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
