Press Statement from Tibetan Parliament on China’s Sanctions Against Tibetan and Uyghur Advocacy Groups in Canada

PRESS STATEMENT

The People’s Republic of China (PRC) has recently imposed sanctions on the Canada Tibet Committee, the Uyghur Rights Advocacy Project, and 20 human rights advocates.

The Tibetan Parliament-in-Exile stands in solidarity with the members of the Canada Tibet Committee and the Uyghur Rights Advocacy Project, applauding their courage in speaking out against the atrocities and severe human rights violations committed by China.

We strongly condemn China’s decision to sanction these organisations and individuals. We call on China to immediately cease all forms of transnational repression designed to intimidate and silence those who courageously speak out for human rights at home and abroad.
