🇹🇷❌🇨🇳 — 🇹🇷 East Turkistan Government in Exile on May 19, 2023 on Twitter:
— "We are extremely dismayed by the fact that our Central Asian kin nations are enhancing their cooperation with China in spite of China's ongoing genocide of Uyghurs, Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, Uzbeks, and other Turkic people in occupied East Turkistan.

We strongly condemn the Central Asian Republics' silent support for China's ongoing genocide in East Turkistan, especially the Kyrgyz Republic's treacherous support for China's war against East Turkistan and its people.

We again remind all the Central Asian Republics of the fact that East Turkistan is what is momentarily holding China from invading and expanding into their respective nations.

To support China's efforts to eradicate East Turkistan is to support China's plans to subjugate the entirety of Central Asia.

Whereas, supporting the restoration of East Turkistan's independence is synonymous with ensuring the independence, security, sovereignty, and territorial integrity of all Central Asian Republics."

🇹🇷❌🇨🇳 — 🇹🇷 WUC: World Uyghur Congress is deeply Concerned About Deepening China – Central Asia Ties Ahead of Summit
— "The World Uyghur Congress (WUC) alerts the Central Asian Governments’ responsibility to speak up, ahead of the China-Central Asia Summit, taking place on May 18-19 in Xi’an, China. The Summit is hosted by Chinese President Xi Jinping with his counterparts, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev of Kazakhstan, Shavkat Mirziyoyev of Uzbekistan, Emomali Rahmonov of Tajikistan, Sadyr Japarov of Kyrgyzstan and Serdar Berdimuhamedov of Turkmenistan.

WUC strongly condemns the prioritisation of economic and trade relations as it continues to serve China’s interest of expansionism and consolidate its influence through the region by curtailing the ongoing Uyghur Genocide that is aggressively carried against the ethnic, cultural and religious kinships of Uyghurs living their next doors.

The inaugural meeting is the first major diplomatic event hosted by China and is taking place while Japan is hosting leading economies during the G-7 Summit in Hiroshima. China’s promoted agenda of boosting economic and security ties as well as strengthening cooperation on counter-terrorism is seen to dominate the China – Central Asia Summit.

In particular the Chinese propaganda narrative on ‘counter-terrorism’, is being used to criminalise legal forms of religious behaviour, leading to arbitrary detentions of millions of Uyghurs,Kazakhs, Uzbek, Kyrgiz and Tadjiks in concentration camps and subjecting them to systematic torture, rape, and forced labour"
