China breaching every act in genocide convention, says legal report on Uighurs

Thinktank publishes first non-governmental legal examination of China's actions in Xinjiang

The Chinese government has breached every single article of the UN genocide convention in its treatment of Uighurs in Xinjiang, and bears responsibility for committing genocide, according to a landmark legal report.

The 25,000-page report, published by a non-partisan US-based thinktank, is the first independent, non-government legal examination of China's treatment of Uighurs under the 1948 genocide convention.
