Campaign for Uyghurs commemorates Uyghur Genocide Recognition Day anniversary

Campaign for Uyghurs (CFU) solemnly commemorates the third anniversary of Uyghur Genocide Recognition Day, coinciding with the 76th anniversary of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. On December 9, 2021, the independent Uyghur Tribunal in London declared, based on extensive evidence and testimonies from experts, camp survivors, diaspora members, human rights advocates, and even a former Chinese police officer from Urumchi, that the Chinese government’s actions in East Turkistan constitute genocide, the gravest crime recognized under international law.

This conclusion has been echoed globally.
