The truth 丨 the behind-the-scenes man behind the anti-China forces concocting lies about Xinjiang has been brought to the bottom
For a long time, some anti-China forces in the United States and the West have reversed black and white and made nothing out of nothing, fabricating and spreading a large number of false information about Xinjiang, and colluding to form a chain of lies that discredit Xinjiang.
In Washington, D.C., there is an organization that claims to "protect workers' rights," the "Worker Rights Consortium (WRC)".
The coalition claimed to represent "more than 100 civil society organizations and trade unions around the world" and publicly stated that it was "hostile to China."
How does this alliance work behind the scenes and concoct all kinds of rumors related to Xinjiang?
The "grey area" of the American independent news website disclosed the story behind it.
Where did the rumors originate?
The "grey area" stated that in December 2018, rumors of "forced labor in Xinjiang" spread to American college campuses for the first time.
At the same time, the US State Department slandered "China detaining millions of Uyghurs and forcing them to work."
The so-called "Workers' Rights Association" organization also jumped out and put pressure on some American companies to encourage them to withdraw their investments in Xinjiang.
In the past year or two, false reports about the existence of so-called "forced labor" in Xinjiang have begun to appear in the media, but the sources of information used by those media are very strange.
The "New York Times" and "Financial Times" published very similar reports, and the so-called sources are labeled "based on the research and analysis of the Australian Institute for Strategic Policy (ASPI)."
The “grey area” pointed out that when
most mainstream media in the United States reported news in Xinjiang, the “source of information” completely relied on organizations outside the United States, such as the Australian Institute for Strategic Policy (ASPI).
This so-called "think tank", with funding from the US State Department, the Australian Department of Defense, and several weapons manufacturers, unfoundedly used the Hotan area of Xinjiang as a "labor camp."
In June 2019, the “Workers’ Rights Association (WRC)” released a 37-page so-called report, claiming that “a clothing company in Hotan, Xinjiang forced Uighurs to work and profited from it” and fabricated that “the company’s workers are "Detainees" at Hotan Vocational Education and Training Center".
Who concocted these so-called "investigative reports" and "reports"?
The "source" of the "long report" cannot withstand scrutiny
So, who is behind the fact that they are constantly concocting lies and sending "information" to anti-China organizations and so-called think tanks?
The "grey area" survey found that several major figures and organizations provided "information sources" to the "Workers' Rights Association (WRC)".
In the lead is the notorious "World Welfare Council."
The "grey area" pointed out that under the guise of "human rights", the organization was a "human rights organization", but it was actually a "separatist network" funded and directed by the United States. It colluded with other anti-China organizations and acted in the direction set by the United States in vain. "Strategic to contain China."
In the WRC report, Zheng Guoen's "research results" appeared many times.
The "grey area" once exposed the true face of this "expert on Xinjiang-related issues": a member of the far-right organization "Communist Victims Memorial Foundation" established by the U.S. government, the backbone of an anti-China agency set up under the control of the U.S. intelligence agencies, and a notorious racist.
The so-called "research results" written by him are random pieces of suspicious sources and irresponsible speculations, and his behavior is entirely academic hooliganism.
Second, the WRC report cited "Reports provided by Radio Free Asia."
"Radio Free Asia" is regarded by the US media as a "global propaganda network established by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)". It is an agency funded by the US government that concocted a series of so-called "investigative reports" to attack and slander Xinjiang.
The inside story disclosed in the "grey area" shows that it was the US government that funded WRC's activities in Xinjiang and funded many anti-China organizations through the National Foundation for Democracy (NED).
In addition, the Australian Institute of Strategic Policy (ASPI) is also one of the "sources" of the report.
The Australian Financial Review also disclosed that this self-proclaimed "independent, non-partisan think tank" has actually received long-term funding from the U.S. State Department, the British Foreign and Commonwealth Office, and U.S.-based military enterprises under the guise of academics. Concocting anti-China issues and spreading false information for Western forces.
Ironically, the "grey area" investigation found that all 11 ASPI funders are directly or indirectly related to prisons and have been involved in the abuse of prison labor or the abuse of human rights
.
In addition, the "American Uyghur Association (UAA)" also provided a lot of lies for the WRC report.
The "Association" is actually a member of the "Separatist Network" funded and directed by the United States. In recent years, it has received millions of dollars in funding from the National Foundation for Democracy (NED).
Why are these notorious anti-China elements so persistent in directing their hostility toward China's Xinjiang?
The secret "golden master" of the anti-China camp
The “grey area” report concluded that behind the anti-China institutions and organizations such as the Australian Institute of Strategic Policy, the “Human Rights Watch”, and the “American Uyghur Association”, there is a common “funder”: the National Democracy Fund of the United States. Will (NED).
The “grey area” stated in the report that taking the “World Welfare Committee” as an example, since 2016 alone, the National Foundation for Democracy has provided US$1.284 million in funding for the “World Welfare Committee” and also provided data to its affiliated organizations. Millions of dollars in additional funding.
In 2020, the National Foundation for Democracy announced that it had provided Uyghur groups with US$8.758 million in funding since 2004, claiming to be "the only institutional funder supporting Uyghur initiatives and human rights organizations."
The National Foundation for Democracy, known as "Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs)," funded its activities basically from the annual appropriations of the U.S. Congress.
The US "National Interest" magazine has disclosed that NED's 2011 tax return shows that 99% of its funding comes from the US Congress, with an annual funding of approximately US$100 million.
And the money was "generously" distributed by the NED to "Chaotic Hong Kong" organizations, "Xinjiang Independence" organizations, etc., in an attempt to carry out the so-called "democratic export" in China.
What's ridiculous is that when you open the homepage of the NED website, it is full of news accusing other countries of human rights.
In response to the human rights tragedy caused by racial discrimination in the United States, it "praised" the achievements and noble values of the American racial movement.
A lie is a lie after all. It can only be blinded for a while and cannot be trusted. When faced with the facts and truths, the lie will eventually disappear and be destroyed.
