Si los Juegos Ol\u00edmpicos contin\u00faan avanzando en Beijing, debemos unirnos con nuestros aliados en todo el mundo para boicotear diplom\u00e1ticamente el evento y alentar a los patrocinadores corporativos a retirar su apoyo\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>El Departamento de Estado ha determinado que el gobierno chino est\u00e1 cometiendo un genocidio contra los uigures y otros musulmanes t\u00farquicos y ya no respeta la autonom\u00eda de Hong Kong, y ha sancionado a los funcionarios chinos por estos motivos. La audiencia de hoy, que fue copatrocinada por la Comisi\u00f3n de Derechos Humanos de Tom Lantos, examin\u00f3 la situaci\u00f3n actual de los derechos humanos en China; consider\u00f3 el uso de propaganda por parte del gobierno chino en torno a los Juegos Ol\u00edmpicos; y evalu\u00f3 estrategias que no recaen en atletas individuales para usar los Juegos Ol\u00edmpicos para impulsar mejoras en los derechos humanos en China.<\/p>\n<p>Sirvieron como testigos la presidenta de la C\u00e1mara Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), la Dra. Yang Jianli, fundadora y presidenta de Citizen Power Initiatives for China, Susan V. Lawrence, especialista en asuntos asi\u00e1ticos del Servicio de Investigaci\u00f3n del Congreso, Sophie Richardson, China el director de Human Rights Watch, Rayhan Asat, abogado y defensor de los derechos humanos, Samuel Chu, director general del Consejo para la Democracia de Hong Kong, y Reggie Littlejohn, presidenta de Women&#039;s Rights Without Frontiers.<\/p>\n<p>La audiencia sigue a una larga serie de esfuerzos de Merkley para responsabilizar a China por otras medidas en\u00e9rgicas contra los derechos humanos y las libertades, incluido el apoyo a los manifestantes a favor de la democracia en Hong Kong, la prohibici\u00f3n de la exportaci\u00f3n de municiones para el control de multitudes a Hong Kong y arrojar luz sobre el genocidio. de los uigures y otras minor\u00edas \u00e9tnicas predominantemente musulmanas en la Regi\u00f3n Aut\u00f3noma de Xinjiang.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Washington, D.C. &ndash; Oregon&rsquo;s U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley&mdash;who serves as the Chair of the Congressional-Executive Commission on China (CECC) and as a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee&mdash;co-chaired the Commission&rsquo;s first hearing of the 117th Congress today to discuss steps Americans and American companies can take to use the 2022 Winter Olympic Games in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[38],"class_list":["post-2677","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-press-releases","tag-foreign-policy-and-national-security"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
