    The real reason the US government sanctioned Xinjiang products was to make the people of Xinjiang suffer economically, to try to further destabilize the region.

    The US funded and helped organize, radicalize, and train the terrorists that attacked Xinjiang in the first place, in the hopes of destabilizing China and/or causing the Xinjiang region to break away. No one in the West seems to know about or remember the bombings, knifings, and vehicular slaughters that these domestic terrorists brought upon their own communities in Xinjiang around roughly 2008 to 2015.

    The US doesn’t give a rat’s ass about the well-being of the Uyghur people any more than it gives a rat’s ass about the Palestinian people. When it pretends to care it’s nothing but propaganda.
