On the day CCP celebrates its 100 years of founding, Uyghur Congress President Dolkun Isa appeared for a special broadcast “Real CCP Report Card” narrating horrific stories from Xinjiang.
Q: Tell us about the reality of the Chinese Communist Party that everyone must know.
A: Well, today is CCP 100 years, but it is the mourning day for Tibetians, Mongolia, and Chinese civilians. Since they came into power in 1949, the China’s Communist Party has continually committed crimes. Although much has changed in China for Tibet, for the Mongolian people, nothing has changed for the better. Through systematic discrimination of language, culture, religion, the CCP has continually attempted to erode the identity of all these people. Today, China and the Chinese government have pointed to the economic growth as a vindication for the CCP and the past century but, rights, and the freedom of the people living under this regime, have been suppressed significantly. CCP is the world’s most powerful criminal organization supported by the state. It is responsible for the deaths of millions of innocent people, including Chinese people Tibetan widows. In the last 100 years, not only has the CCP committed genocide against Uyghurs and the cultural aspirations in Tibet, and Mongolian people, destroyed democracy in Hong Kong and threatened the national sovereignty of Iran, but also today CCP is threatening global democracy, human rights and international human rights system and international law. So that’s why I would like to say CCP crimes must be held accountable by the international justice system.
Q: Could you shed some more light on the ethnic cleansing that is being witnessed here. And if you could give us these gory details of the genocide, that is happening in Xinjiang at the hands of the CCP?
A: Today is the 21st-century, but the Chinese Communist Party Chinese government committed genocide against the Uyghurs. Most of them are suffering in the concentration camps. And were subject to forced labour and forced sterilisation and family separation. More than 1 million illegal children are separated from the family and in name of indoctrination are targeting the identity and changing names and showing loyalty to the Chinese Communist Party and Xi Jinping. The religious persecution is unbelievable.
Even what you see, what you eat, what you drink, what you talk about everything, is determined by the CCP government. I could hardly get access to my parents, and my family members. I got the very heartbreaking news of my mother who died in a concentration camp. My younger brother is sentenced to life.
Q: How long have you been in exile and currently, where do you inhabit? You think the CCP is targeting your family because you are speaking out against them at the international forum?
A: I’m living in exile since 1994, more than 27 years. For 27 years, I have never seen my family members. I’m living in Germany since 1996 for more than 25 years. I’m a German citizen, but the Chinese government never allows us to go abroad. Because of my activism, my family is paying such a price, you know. CCP is the biggest criminal organization.
Q: The Chinese Communist Party is obviously forcing the minority communities across Mainland China to toe the party line and therefore, it is going good and picking out officials from Xingjian as well as honouring them for quote-unquote “battling separatism” and “encouraging” loyalty to the CCP.
A: From time to time, the CCP and Xi Jinping try to get information, and campaign to try, cheat and confuse the internationally, but it is too late today. Today it is very clear that Xi Jinping and the Chinese Communist Party are committing crimes, they commit genocide and crimes against humanity.
Q: What do you think needs to be done at the international level to hold China and the CCP accountable, keeping in mind that several other international communities and developed nations, the European Union nations, United States, Australia, they›ve all come out in support of the minorities living there?
A: CCP must be held accountable by the international justice system but, unfortunately, China is not a member of the International Criminal Court. That’s why it is not fighting, and the International Court for Justice should get approved by the UN Security Council. Today, quite a lot of western countries invest and continue to do business in China. I told you already that China’s government points to this economic growth as an indication of the success of the CCP. That’s why all business must be stopped with China. China and CCP must be held accountable as they commit crimes and all human beings, particularly democratic nations, should stand together, set up a coalition, and speak in one voice against the CCP. The Chinese government has also manipulated the UN system and has a monopoly there.
