I think very few countries have any leverage at all when it comes to what happens

inside China and the Chinese Government is absolutely clear that this is not a

matter for outside countries’.

‘When we look at what happens to the Uighurs this is

obviously completely against our values we raise

these issues with the Chinese government when we

see them and we also understand that if we talk too

loudly and publicly about our Human Rights concerns

we will lose access to senior people in the Chinese

government and then we won’t be able to do any

good at all. …………………………

watched and read on this website.We encourage you to do so.
