U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken held a virtual meeting on July 6 with seven Uyghurs including internment camp survivors, and expressed the United States’ commitment to ending Beijing’s ongoing crimes against humanity and genocide in China’s far-western Xinjiang region.
“The United States will continue to place human rights at the forefront of our China policy and will always support the voices of activists, survivors, and family members of victims who courageously speak out against these atrocities,” stated State Department spokesperson Ned Price in a statement following the meeting.
Price warned that the United States could place additional U.S. sanctions on Chinese officials responsible for crimes against Uyghurs and other Muslim minorities.
“As we deem appropriate, I suspect we’ll be employing additional tools going forward to hold to account those officials responsible for what has taken place there,” Price said during a daily briefing on Tuesday.
In Xinjiang, over a million Uyghurs and other Muslim minorities are currently being held in Chinese internment camps, where they face forced labor, torture, sexual abuse, political indoctrination, forced abortion, and forced sterilization. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has claimed these camps as “vocational training centers” for “curbing extremism.”
The United States designated the suppression campaign in Xinjiang as a form of genocide in January. Since then, Belgium, Canada, the Czech Republic, Lithuania, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom have followed suit.
According to Price, Blinken wanted to hold the meeting so he could “hear firsthand their stories, [and] to hear firsthand their impression of the ongoing atrocities in Xinjiang,” as well as hearing any recommendations they might have.
The State Department did not release the names of the seven participants in the meeting, but only said they were former detainees, advocates, and relatives of individuals detained in Xinjiang.
Rayhan Asat, an international human rights lawyer and a nonresident senior fellow at the Washington-based think tank Atlantic Council, was one of the seven participants at the meeting, according to her Twitter account.
“I discussed my brother Ekpar’s illegal imprisonments, solitary confinement, and my goal at the @AtlanticCouncil to redress and bring an end to the mass atrocities in Xinjiang,” Asat wrote, recounting her talks with Blinken in a series of Twitter posts.
Her brother Ekpar Asat, a businessman, was forcibly disappeared in April 2016 and was sentenced to 15 years in prison in 2020 after being convicted on charges of “inciting ethnic hatred and ethnic discrimination” in a secret trial. In January, he communicated with his family for the first time since his disappearance via a video call but looked pale and had lost significant weight.
Asat also recounted telling Blinken how the secretary of state said earlier this year the United States needed to engage China “from a position of strength.” As a result, she recalled telling Blinken: “This cannot be through mere factional opposition. America’s strength must come from seriously opposing genocide.”
“And so, Secretary Blinken, I ask you the question which is echoing right now between the narrow walls of my innocent brother’s prison cell: America, America are you still there?” Asat added.
Omer Kanat, executive director of Washington-based nonprofit Uyghur Human Rights Project, also took to Twitter to recount his meeting with Blinken.
“Huge thanks to @SecBlinken for a very constructive roundtable today. We appreciate his leadership on action to end the Uyghur genocide, especially coordinated sanctions and the G-7 commitment on Uyghur forced labor in global supply chains,” Kanat wrote.
In March, the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, and Canada announced coordinated sanctions against Chinese officials responsible for human rights abuses of Uyghurs. Last year, several Chinese officials and entities were slapped with U.S. sanctions for the same reasons, including Chen Quanguo, a member of the CCP’s powerful Politburo.
The whereabouts of another missing Uyghur was also recently revealed. On July 2, the Washington-based nonprofit Campaign for Uyghurs (CFU) issued a statement saying that the Chinese regime had confirmed the imprisonment of Dr. Rahile Dawut, who went missing in December 2017. Dawut was a professor at China’s Xinjiang University.
“I feel infuriated to hear that my mother is in prison, while the Chinese authorities kept silent on this matter for more than three years,” stated Akida Pulat, Dawut’s daughter and CFU’s director of outreach, according to the statement.
She added: “This sad news only strengthens my determination to speak up on the atrocities committed by the Chinese regime. I am sincerely asking for help from human rights organizations.”

It was raining in the sky that day, but the "EndCCP" convoy that patrols New York City every weekend traveled unimpeded, bringing the truth to the people. The slogan on the roof read:
Heaven destroys the CCP
Down with the CCP demons
CCP Lie, People Died
Reject the CCP and stay away from the plague (Say NO to CCP, Keep SAFE from CCP Virus)
CCP is the Real Source of the Virus
CCP Corrupts the World (CCP Corrupts the World)
Hold the CCP Accountable for its Crimes
CCP ≠ China
Stop persecuting Falun Gong
Please sign the EndCCP initiative (Sign the Petition, endccp.com)
In the wind and rain, dozens of vehicles with American flags flying on their bodies and EndCCP slogans on their roofs were vast and neatly lined up and shuttled through Manhattan's Chinatown, Wall Street Financial District, the Chinese Consulate, Times Square, Radio City, and the Museum of Modern Art. And other places, especially outside the Chinese Consulate at the junction of 12th Avenue and West 42nd Street, circled several times to express silent protests against the CCP’s persecution of Falun Gong and the Chinese people.
The team was supported by the people along the road
The convoy attracted the attention of many drivers and passers-by along the road. A white gentleman opened the window and asked loudly: "What is this?" The driver of the convoy responded to him: "CCP is the Chinese Communist Party. CCP is evil. (CCP refers to the Chinese Communist Party, CCP is evil)", "Eliminate the CCP Save America (clear the CCP and save the United States)". Mr. White thanked him repeatedly.
When the team was passing through Wall Street and was waiting for a red light, a young Chinese who spoke standard Mandarin saw the team, took the EndCCP flyer, and said to the EndCCP volunteers: "You are doing the right thing. Really, we Everyone has to start (from himself), the sky will destroy the CCP, and it will eventually be destroyed. Thank you! Thank you!"
What people want, hope that the CCP will perish soon
Yi Rong, chairman of the Global Service Center for Quitting the CCP, said in an interview on July 3: "The conscientious person will send the CCP to an end. It reflects the desire of the people. I hope that the CCP will perish soon. I hope that this day will come soon. It also shows that the CCP has been embarrassed on all sides. At the end of the day, it will not be far away; I believe that justice will be manifested in the near future, and the heaven will destroy the CCP and eliminate the demon of the CCP."
Yi Rong also said that the world is now holding the CCP to blame for the epidemic, and it is also tracing the root of the virus. All sources point to the CCP. The international community that was fooled by the CCP has also realized that the CCP demon will not disappear from the earth. It is scouring mankind every day.
The Chinese are particularly victims. Falun Gong is the most persecuted group in China. However, Falun Gong is Buddhism and has the power of Buddhism. The CCP’s persecution of Falun Gong has failed completely. Not only that, Falun Gong has spread throughout the world, and Falun Gong practitioners have been walking. At the forefront of anti-persecution, they spread the news, so that more people are awakened. More and more people see the evil nature of the CCP and are unwilling to be deceived and oppressed by it. Everyone has a common aspiration, that is Disintegrate the CCP as soon as possible; and to withdraw from the CCP team, reject the CCP, abandon the CCP, and expose the CCP is the way to disintegrate the CCP.
The number of people who signed EndCCP globally reached 1.129 million
The "Heaven Destroy the CCP" convoy not only appeared in New York, but also in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Boston, and major cities in Australia. The "Heaven Destroy the CCP" convoy paraded to expose the nature of the CCP, convey the truth, and call on people to stay away from the CCP-rejecting the CCP can stay away from the CCP virus (Wuhan virus, SARS-CoV-2, covi), defeat the CCP virus.
At the same time, the joint "Down with the CCP Demon" (EndCCP) initiative is also in full swing around the world. Every day, a large number of people of all ethnicities leave signatures and messages on the EndCCP.com website. The number of "EndCCP" signatures exceeded 1 million globally on 5 June. In the past month, the number of signatures increased by nearly 130,000. As of 5 July, the number of global signatures reached 1.129 million. ◇

Man kidnapped by aliens claimed insiders' details were too late and too little
The US government recently publicized its investigation report on UFOs, but did not give a clear conclusion. The American man who claimed to have been abducted by aliens criticized the government report for revealing too few and too late details about aliens. He believes that the reason the Pentagon does not want to speak is that it "does not want to cause panic."

The U.S. does not deny the existence of UFOs
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence of the United States released an official UFO investigation report on 25 June. The Pentagon’s Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Working Group outlined 144 UFO incidents witnessed by U.S. military personnel.
The report said:, "In 18 incidents described in 21 reports, witnesses reported unusual UAP movement patterns or flight characteristics. Some UAPs appeared to remain stationary in the high-altitude wind; or moved against the wind; or suddenly maneuvered; Or move at a fairly fast speed, but there is no obvious means of propulsion."
The report pointed out that these sightings may have five explanations: air clutter, atmospheric natural phenomena, US government or industrial development projects, foreign adversary systems, and an umbrella "other"-but the report did not mention alien spacecraft. And said that more analysis is needed to determine whether these sightings represent "breakthrough" technology.
This report did not deny the possibility of extraterrestrial life visiting the earth, but it also did not give a clear explanation.

American man kidnapped by aliens
Calvin from Moss Point, Jackson County, Mississippi. Parker (Calvin Parker) said: These investigations and reports released by Congress and government departments are too few and too late. "I don't believe they will go straight."
"They just want to dismiss them by telling everyone a little bit." Parker said, "They should have done this a long time ago."
Parker believes that the reason the Pentagon does not want to talk is that it "does not want to cause panic."
Parker is one of the most famous UFO cases in history, and he was kidnapped by aliens. In 2018, Parker wrote a book "Pascagoula-Close Contact, My Story", which described the abduction of aliens in detail, and later he wrote a second book.
The book states that on the night of October 11, 1973, he and Charles. Charles Hickson was fishing on the Pascagoula River. They came to an abandoned shipyard with a small pier in front of them, and the two were on the dock.
Parker said that he noticed a blue light reflecting off the water. At first he thought it was law enforcement officers who came and told them that they needed to leave here. However, when he raised his head, he realized that the light came from something he had never seen before.
"A big beam of light came out of the clouds," Parker said. The light was "dazzling."
"It's hard to say that the light is so bright, but it looks like a football. I just estimate that (its diameter) is about 80 feet. The sound is very small, just a hiss." Parker said.
Then the situation became more surreal. Parker said he saw three legless creatures floating on the spacecraft. These creatures put him and Hickson into the spacecraft and performed physical examinations on both of them. Then they were taken back to the shore.
The two reported the incident to the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office. According to Parker, in order to verify that they did not lie, the police conducted a sobriety test and a polygraph test on the two of them. Parker said he also passed the voice stress test.

American women: These humanoids do not come from the earth
While Parker was kidnapped by aliens, Maria from Theodore, Alabama. Maria Blair and her late husband Jerry Blair also witnessed the mysterious phenomenon.
That night, the Blairs were on the opposite side of the Pascagoula River, which was the opposite of Hickson and Parker. In an earlier interview, the couple said they saw a blue light moving and hovering in the sky, and then landed about 150 to 200 yards.
At the time, Jerry was waiting for a ship to pick him up to work at sea, and he hardly noticed the light because he was thinking about his work.
When the boat arrived, Maria walked to the dock, when she heard the sound of splashes in the water. She looked down and saw a human-like thing in a diving suit in the water. Later, after she heard that Parker was kidnapped by aliens and described his appearance, she said it was the same as what she had seen.
Blair, like Parker, believes that government officials are concealing UFO information. "Since that night in 1973, the whole world has known that we are not the only one."
Blair said, "The government knows that we are not the only ones." "These humanoids are not from other countries. They are more advanced than us. I have never forgotten what I saw that night. These humanoids are not from this earth."

American woman: UFO comes from another world
Rosie of Moss Point City. Rosey Nail also expressed dissatisfaction with the UFO report. On the night that Hickson and Parker were kidnapped, Nell was hundreds of miles away from Pascagoula and witnessed something that did not belong to this world.
That night, she saw a beam of light moving in the sky in Bruce, northeast of Grenada, and then split into two beams. A sphere leaned toward her, looking as big as the sun, and began to change color. Then it reunited with another object and disappeared. She said that none of the five possibilities mentioned in the report made sense for this matter.
"It's from another world, no matter what it has." Nell said, "it has a purpose."
"It is manipulated-flying up and down, ramming, flying in the air. I don't think it is an army of any country. I think as technology advances, they will know if it comes from another country. No matter what the truth is, I Think we should know it (what it is)."
Parker is 67 years old this year and is struggling with health issues. He hopes that more information will be released to have a statement about what happened to him and Hickson, but he is not sure whether he can do so.
"I hope they can tell us." Parker said, "I just want to have a statement before I die. And that's not far away, but I don't think we will get the answer from Congress or the Department of Defense."

US Congressman: UFO briefing is eye-opening
This UFO report is still preliminary, and a second report is expected. On June 16, before the UFO report was released, members of the House Intelligence Committee took the lead in listening to this confidential briefing in a SCIF (Sensitive Information Intersection Facility).
The full name of SCIF is Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility, which is a facility that effectively guarantees the security and confidentiality of meetings. It can prevent the eavesdropping of personnel, telephone wiretapping, and illegal computer intrusion.
Fox News reported that after the hearing, lawmakers were silent about the existence of aliens and refused to tell reporters what they had learned.
However, Adam Schiff, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee and a California Democrat, hinted to the media that the briefing was eye-opening, but he also refused to discuss specific details before the public report was released.
Adam Schiff said, "This is an interesting briefing. I did learn something, which is definitely new to me. But I think I will stop there."
