  At the press conference on Xinjiang-related issues in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region held by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that day, a so-called report was written against the anti-China scholar Adrian Zenz, calling the promotion of national language education in Xinjiang as "brainwashing" and "cultural extinction". External forces refuted it from two aspects.

  On the one hand, the monitoring of the quality of compulsory education shows that the teaching quality of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region has improved significantly, especially in the first and second grades of primary schools. The indicators have increased the most, laying a solid foundation for the growth and progress of young people of all ethnic groups.

On the other hand, in accordance with the requirements of the national curriculum design plan for primary and secondary schools, Xinjiang has opened Uyghur, Kazakh, Kirgiz, Mongolian, and Sibo courses in primary and secondary schools, which fully guarantees the right of ethnic minority students to learn their own languages. Effectively promote the inheritance and development of minority languages ​​and cultures.

  Mahemuti Abduwaili also said that the languages ​​of various ethnic minorities are widely used in education, justice, administration, social and public affairs and other fields. For example, Xinjiang TV Station has 12 TV sets in 4 languages: Han, Uygur, Kazakh, and Kirgiz. program.

  In response to Zheng Guoen’s attack on China’s official “elimination of ethnic minority traditions, religions and family life”, Mahemuti Abudu externally retorted that in recent years, Xinjiang has actively collected, protected, and rescued ancient books of various ethnic groups, and translated and published the near-lost "Fu Le "Wisdom", compiled and published a variety of folk oral literary works such as the Mongolian epic "Jianggeer", and created three national-level production protection demonstration bases for intangible cultural heritage projects of Uyghur musical instruments, carpets and Idlesi silk weaving.
