WASHINGTON, DC \u2013 El senador estadounidense de Oreg\u00f3n, Jeff Merkley, que forma parte del Comit\u00e9 de Relaciones Exteriores del Senado y de la Comisi\u00f3n Ejecutiva del Congreso sobre China (CECC), emiti\u00f3 la siguiente declaraci\u00f3n hoy despu\u00e9s de que el Departamento de Estado de EE. UU. finalmente reconoci\u00f3 el comportamiento genocida de China en la Regi\u00f3n Aut\u00f3noma Uigur de Xinjiang. Regi\u00f3n. Merkley hab\u00eda instado previamente al Departamento de Estado a tomar esta determinaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cEstados Unidos no puede permanecer en silencio ante la escalada de vigilancia, el encarcelamiento arbitrario, la tortura y la 'reeducaci\u00f3n' forzada de China de los uigures y otros grupos minoritarios musulmanes. Estas acciones que revuelven el est\u00f3mago son una afrenta directa a la libertad y la dignidad de millones de seres humanos, y los valores que atesoran miles de millones m\u00e1s en todo el mundo.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo se puede abordar un problema sin nombrarlo. Por eso me complace que el Departamento de Estado haya dado este importante paso adelante en nuestra lucha para responsabilizar a China por estos cr\u00edmenes de lesa humanidad, llamando finalmente a las acciones de China por lo que son: genocidio. Espero aprovechar esta acci\u00f3n bajo la administraci\u00f3n de Biden para trabajar m\u00e1s de cerca con socios de todo el mundo para hacer que el gobierno chino rinda cuentas por sus violaciones de derechos humanos en Xinjiang y en otros lugares\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Merkley escribi\u00f3 la disposici\u00f3n en el proyecto de ley de gastos del a\u00f1o fiscal 2021 que requiere una determinaci\u00f3n antes del 1 de abril sobre si la persecuci\u00f3n de uigures, kazajos, kirguises y miembros de otros grupos minoritarios musulmanes en Xinjiang constituye atrocidades. <\/p>\n

Merkley ha sido un defensor constante del fortalecimiento del compromiso de los Estados Unidos de investigar y responder a los abusos de los derechos humanos del gobierno chino contra los musulmanes uigures en China. Anteriormente, Merkley copatrocin\u00f3 la Ley de pol\u00edtica de derechos humanos de los uigures<\/i><\/a>, y autor de las disposiciones del proyecto de ley que sancionan a los l\u00edderes chinos responsables de estas violaciones de derechos humanos.<\/p>\n

En 2020, Merkley tambi\u00e9n codirigi\u00f3 el Ley de prevenci\u00f3n del trabajo forzoso uigur<\/i><\/a>\u2014legislaci\u00f3n para garantizar que los bienes fabricados en Xinjiang importados a los Estados Unidos no se hagan con trabajo forzoso.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
