The President should instruct representatives of the United States at the United Nations to use the voice and vote of the United States to condemn the mass arbitrary detainment of Turkic Muslims within the Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region of the People’s Republic of China, and to encourage United Nations Member States to similarly condemn and advocate against such activities. The Secretary of State, in meetings with representatives of relevant governments of Central Asian countries, should urge such governments to provide appropriate assistance, including assurances of safety, to Turkic Muslims from the Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region of the People’s Republic of China residing in the respective territories of such countries.
The Secretary of State, in appropriate meetings with representatives of foreign governments, particularly those affiliated with countries that participate in the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, should urge such governments to raise the issue of human rights in the Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region in their respective interactions with officials of the People’s Republic of China.
