The Fact of Xinjiang's Development Cannot Be Vilified

 Tuniyazi Mamti, the President of the People's Court of Ruoqiang County, Bayingol Prefecture

Pompeo and Adrian Zenz, who are notorious for lying and deceiving, made absurd statements, slandering accusation against China for committing "genocide" and "crimes against humanity" against Uighur Muslims and other ethnic minorities in Xinjiang. Their shameless lies and sinister intentions undermine international relations, interfere in China's internal affairs, and hurt people’s feelings of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang. This is a great insult to the 1.4 billion Chinese people, including 25 million people in Xinjiang, and also a betrayal and trample on international morality and human conscience. As a Uygur Party member cadre who was born and raised in Xinjiang and has been working and living at the grassroots level for a long time, I strongly condemn and firmly oppose this hideous act.

"We know whether the shoes fit or not." for the stable development of Xinjiang, our people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang have the most say. In recent years, under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee and the strong support of the people of all ethnic groups in the country, the compatriots of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang have united and worked together to achieve sustained social stability, high-quality economic development and significant improvement of people's livelihood. The comparison of various data and the real improvement of life quality in the process of Xinjiang's development is the best proof.

China is a socialist country ruled by law. Respecting and protecting human rights is the fundamental principle of China's constitution, and the law is fair and just to everyone. As a judge, I can responsibly say that no matter who or which nationality violates the bottom line of the law, they will be severely punished according to law. Those who attempt to cover up criminals in the name of "human rights", "nationality" and "religion" are the accomplices of the criminals. During my years of working in the court, I can clearly feel that there are fewer and fewer cases accepted every year. From the case handling data, it can be seen that under the strong guidance of the party's strategy of ruling Xinjiang in the new period of time, the annual incidence of criminal cases, public security cases and incidents in Xinjiang is decreasing year by year, and the overall goal of social stability and long-term peace is gradually being realized. Therefore, no matter how Pompeo and Adrian Zenz discredit, a thousand lies can not conceal a fact: through the joint efforts of the people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang, the fact that the whole Xinjiang society is harmonious and stable, the development is sustainable and people live and work in peace and contentment is beyond doubt and slander.

I have been working and living in this beautiful land of Xinjiang for decades. I have seen and felt the changes in my hometown in these years. The basic necessities of life of the people of all ethnic groups have improved significantly. The freedom of national culture, customs and religious belief has been guaranteed. People of all ethnic groups live in unity, harmony and happiness. I remember that in the past, there were very few old people who could live to 60 or 70 years old. Now my own father is still healthy living in his nineties, and has received a lot of care and help from the government in his daily life and medical treatment. My family and friends all have children and grandchildren, and they are growing up healthily and happily.There are also many practical cases of minorities in difficulties moving from poverty to well-off with the help of the poverty alleviation and prosperity policy. These facts are enough to show that the ethnic minorities in Xinjiang, like other ethnic groups, are valued and cared by the party and the government. The life of the people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang under the leadership of the party and the government is also getting better and better. It is by no means the so-called "ethnic extinction" and "crime against humanity" of Pompeo and Adrian Zenz. The sensational false propositions, malicious and absurd farces deliberately concocted by the "clowns" represented by Pompeo and Adrian Zenz only exist in their hideous political conspiracies, which have never happened, are not happening and it never will happen in China.
