China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi was criticized by Japan and the United States for the human rights situation in Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region and Hong Kong at the EAS = East Asia Summit Foreign Ministers' Meeting held on the night of the 4th, but strongly argued that it was a hurt to China. I made it clear that I did.
The EAS Foreign Ministers' Meeting was held online on the night of the 4th of Japan time, with the participation of foreign ministers such as Japan, China, the United States, and Russia, in addition to the 10 countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations.
According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China, Foreign Minister Wang revealed that the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region and Hong Kong were criticized by Japan and the United States for human rights.
In response to these criticisms, he said, "In recent years, the Uighur population and life expectancy have increased, and the annual income and education level have increased year by year." I have done it.
Regarding Hong Kong, he said, "Hong Kong's national security law and reform of the electoral system have restored the stability of Hong Kong, and 70% of the residents are satisfied with the current situation."
At the EAS Foreign Ministers' Meeting, Japan expressed deep concern about the situation in Hong Kong and the human rights situation in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region by Foreign Minister Motegi.
On the other hand, although it is not clear whether the United States has taken up such a theme, the Biden administration has so far carried out "genocide" in the Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region with the intention of destroying ethnic groups and other groups, and in Hong Kong it is political. He was increasingly criticized for the dismantling of his freedom.
