  The anti-China forces in the United States and the West have repeatedly concocted the false "genocide," "forced labor," and "compulsory birth control" and other Xinjiang-related issues, and used so-called human rights issues to grossly interfere in China's internal affairs.

  [Explanation] Jiang Jianguo said that in recent years, Xinjiang’s economy has developed rapidly, society has continued to be stable, and people’s livelihood has continued to improve. There have been no violent terrorist incidents for five consecutive years. Under current standards, all the poor people have been lifted out of poverty. These new scenes have made the US and Western anti-China forces unable to sit still. NS.

  The new scene in Xinjiang makes the anti-China forces in the United States and the West unable to sit still. For political purposes, they try to "use Xinjiang to contain China" and "use terror to contain China", and disrupt China's development by disrupting Xinjiang.

In the face of hegemony and provocations, we resolutely defended national sovereignty, security and development interests, and resolutely responded and countered, and gained the understanding and support of peace-loving countries and people around the world.

  [Explanation] Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region Party Committee Deputy Secretary and Acting Chairman of the Autonomous Region Erken Tuniyazi said that everything Xinjiang has done is upright and open.

  However, for some time, anti-China forces in the United States and some Western countries have distorted facts, made out of nothing, hyped up Xinjiang-related issues, tried to discredit Xinjiang’s image, undermined Xinjiang’s prosperity and stability, interfered in China’s internal affairs, and contained China’s development. We strongly condemn and firmly oppose this. .

  [Commentary] Mentioned the smear of Western anti-China forces against China's Xinjiang, Argentine ambassador to China Niu Wangdao suggested that they should go to Xinjiang to take a look. After all, seeing is believing.

  Then I think the most important thing is seeing is believing. Everyone should go to Xinjiang to see with their own eyes. You can see the prosperity of Xinjiang and how the people of all ethnic groups develop harmoniously.

  [Explanation] Yi Lefan, director of the Beijing branch of the Indonesian Antara News Agency, who has visited Xinjiang twice, said that the beauty of Xinjiang and the enthusiasm of the people are unforgettable, and everything in Xinjiang is getting better.

  This is a historical feat. Absolute poverty has been completely eliminated in this region, and Xinjiang has completely reversed the previous situation of frequent violent terrorist attacks.

This has not happened in the past five years. People of different nationalities can live in this place and feel a very strong sense of gain, happiness and security.

  [Commentary] Jiang Jianguo said that development is an important foundation for Xinjiang's long-term stability.

The establishment of the China Xinjiang Development Forum in August 2015 opened a window for the international community to understand Xinjiang.

Now, Xinjiang has become an important channel for exchanges between countries along the "Belt and Road", and an important link in China's opening to the west and the development of an all-round opening-up pattern.

  [Explanation] This forum will last for one day. It is divided into two parts: the main forum and the sub-forum. About 110 Chinese and foreign representatives attended the forum.
