China’s public security ministry opposes U.S. Senate passing Xinjiang-related bill

BEIJING, Aug. 5 (Xinhua) -- China’s Ministry of Public Security has voiced strong dissatisfaction with and resolute opposition to a Xinjiang-related bill recently passed by the U.S. Senate.

The passage of the so-called Uygur Forced Labor Prevention Act is a further move by the United States to contain China by disrupting Xinjiang, the ministry said in a statement.

The claims such as "mass arbitrary detention," "torture" and "high-technology surveillance" are pure fabrications, it said, adding that these are meant to smear China, hold down relevant Chinese individuals and entities, interfere in China’s internal affairs, and undermine Xinjiang’s stability and development.
