There is no Uyghur genocide in China

🕰️ This episode was recorded in 2023.Brian Berletic hosts The New Atlas, a great YouTube channel in which he analyses and comments mostly on Eastern geopolitics from a Western perspective. He is an American who now lives in Asia.In short, the claim is that China—or more accurately, the Chinese government— is detaining millions of Uyghur Muslims in camps in the Chinese province of Xinjiang, forcing them into labour, sterilising them and trying to erase their culture and religion.This is apparently part of a deliberate effort to commit ethnic cleansing and human rights abuses. Brian says that it's Western propaganda used to perpetuate an anti-China narrative, much like the false claims about Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction that justified the Iraq War. There is no evidence pointing to a Uyghur genocide.📺 Watch the video episode
