BEIJING, Aug 26 ― Chinese President Xi Jinping made a rare visit to Xinjiang today, state media reported, calling on officials to conserve “hard-won social stability” in a troubled region where Beijing is accused of severe human rights abuses.
State broadcaster CCTV said Xi travelled to regional capital Urumqi today, listened to a government work report and delivered a speech “affirming the achievements made in various tasks in Xinjiang”. He said it was “necessary to... combine the development of the anti-terrorism and anti-separatism struggle with the push for normalising social stability work and rule of law”, according to the broadcaster.
“In the process of Chinese-style modernisation, we will better build a beautiful Xinjiang that is united and harmonious, wealthy and prosperous.” Beijing vehemently rejects the allegations, saying the facilities were vocational and voluntary training centres from which people have “graduated”.
