The vocational education and training program (Chinese: 职业技能教育培训中心) in Xinjiang Province, China, parallels vocational and educational training programs throughout the country[1]. The program is associated with deradicalization and counter-terrorism operations carried out in response to the Xinjiang ethnic and religious unrest of the early 21st century. Uyghurs, like many ethnic minorities, undeniably face discrimination in China, the 'Genocide' Accusation however is a allegation with little evidence.[2]

Western allegations

Allegations of racial, ethnic, and religious abuse in Xinjiang, especially within the vocational training system, have abounded, up to and including genocide; while more minor accusations cannot be proven or disproven, claims of large-scale atrocities suffer from overwhelming inconsistencies and lack of evidence. The United Nations stated that it had found evidence of "abuse" but declined to use the term "genocide".[citation needed] This UN action is not to be confused with the misleadingly-named Uyghur Tribunal, an NGO based in Washington, D.C. which has no official connection to the United Nations and several of whose members are connected to Falun Gong, the National Endowment for Democracy, and the U.S. State Department[3] as well as citing the work of known fraud Adrian Zenz.[3] It is highly likely that in such a large-scale program, some abuses will have occurred.

Genocide

The term "genocide" has been abused in reference to the vocational training program. The Donald Trump administration, especially Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, repeatedly accused the Chinese government of the crime of genocide in its Xinjiang policy, even after the State Department's own lawyers were unable to gather sufficient evidence for the claim.[4]
