Recently, an organization known as the "International Chinese Language Media Alliance" has signed a cooperation agreement with more than 300 Chinese language media outside China to "tell the story of Xinjiang well" together. The news has been accused by Uyghur Eli and experts monitoring the situation in China of colluding with China in a campaign to cover up the genocide.
According to an exclusive report of "Xinjiang" newspaper, the International Chinese-language media alliance has signed a cooperation agreement with more than 300 Chinese-language media outside of China to "tell the story of Xinjiang well" together. This information was given through the Malaysian president of the organization Shu Bingyi. However, no information was given about what kind of organization and who it was founded by.
Recently, the international Chinese-language media concluded a week-long visit. The visit was led by the Union of Chinese Expatriates, the Information Office of the People's Government of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, and the Union of Returned Chinese Expatriates of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. More than 30 Chinese-language media representatives from 18 countries and regions including Malaysia, the United States, Germany, France, Canada, Australia, Thailand, Japan, and Korea participated in the seven-day trip.
According to the news report, after the visit, they expressed their impressions with the following words and made some promises: "Through the on-site visit in Xinjiang, we deeply felt the changes in Xinjiang's economic and social development and the happy life of people of all ethnicities." When we return, we will vigorously promote the beautiful Xinjiang.
So, why does the "International Chinese Language Media Alliance" sign cooperation agreements with more than 300 Chinese language media around the world? What is the purpose of this partnership agreement? What motivated them?
Mr. Gordon G. Chang, an American political analyst, said in an interview with our radio station:
"We know that the Chinese regime is committing genocide against Uyghurs, Kazakhs and other non-Chinese ethnic groups. There are many documents about this that have come to us over the years. China felt it had to deal with it. So they're inviting friendly reporters to set up the tour and make them say these ridiculous things. I think a lot of people don't trust these journalists. It might only work for people who want to trust the Chinese regime, and I don't think China has anything to gain from this propaganda. for all men know the truth.'
Dr. Rune Stenberg, a Uighur scholar from Germany, interviewed us and expressed his opinion about the cooperation agreement signed by the International Chinese Language Media Association with more than 300 Chinese language media around the world and their one-week visit to Uighur Eli: "China In order to control those in East Turkistan and justify their crimes, the authorities established cooperation with foreign agencies and journalists and invited them to East Turkistan. Journalists who travel will be loyal to China for the financial benefits they receive. Does not tell the truth. "Can't criticize the Chinese government."
Meng Linghua, editor-in-chief of Japan's "New View of Dongying", who participated in the 7-day visit, said: "I really feel that freedom of religious belief is fully guaranteed in Xinjiang. During the interview, the religious leaders answered various questions honestly and confidently. The fact is that some rumors on the Internet are not true.
Dr. Rooney Stenberg refuted the words of Meng Linghua, the editor-in-chief of Japan's "New Perspective of Dongying", and said: "There is no freedom of religion in East Turkistan. Many tombs were destroyed. People were sent to camps for praying and reciting the Qur'an. If there is freedom and everything is normal, why doesn't China open up East Turkistan? Won't they allow me and other foreign researchers and journalists to go?"
According to the news, Yuan Yen, deputy director of "China Television Station" in Washington, and Lina Yuna, editor-in-chief of "Silicon Valley Times" in the United States, are individuals who recently visited the Uyghur Autonomous Region.
Zhou Jiqiang, head of the information distribution department of the Chinese Expatriate Association, said: "Chinese-language media reporters from all over the world visited and visited the south and north of God's Blade, and many words that slander Xinjiang came out spontaneously during the actual visit. Xinjiang is a good place, witnessing Xinjiang's high-quality development, high-level opening up, and the happy life of people of all ethnicities living peacefully and happily, telling the real story of Xinjiang to the outside world through various forms, forming a very good international broadcast effect. After that, we will continue to increase our campaign efforts and project the image of Xinjiang as a trustworthy, lovable and respectable country to the whole world.
Gordon Chang reacted strongly to Zhou Zhiqiang's remarks, saying that China cannot stop its propaganda, but it is necessary to ensure that people get the facts about the genocide that China has carried out against the Uyghurs, Kazakhs, Kyrgyz and other non-Chinese Turkic ethnic groups. He said:
"We will not stop China from spreading this kind of propaganda. We cannot stop this propaganda war launched by China. But we can counter China's propaganda by conveying the facts to the people of the world. We have abundant documentary evidence of genocide and crimes against humanity committed by China against Uyghurs, Kazakhs, Kyrgyz and other non-Chinese Turkic peoples. "We just have to make sure people get the facts."
Recently, the US State Department asserted that the Chinese government has used a variety of deception and coercion methods to influence the international information environment. At the same time, China's information control and disinformation were mentioned in particular, and China's actions have shown that these actions are seriously affecting the economic and security interests of various countries.
