The World Uyghur Congress (WUC) welcomes the Resolution
497 of the House of Representatives of Congress of the
United States of America which called on the Peoples
Republic of China (PRC) to immediately release the
children of Mrs Rabiyee Kadeer and Canadian citizen
Huseyin Celil and refrain from further engaging in acts
of cultural, linguistic and religious suppression
directed against the entire Uyghur people in East
Turkestan ( also known as the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous
Region).
The WUC, as the sole representative of the Uyghur people
abroad , sincerely appreciates the members of the House
of Representatives for their support of the human rights
of the Uyghur people and joins them in calling the
government of the Peoples Republic of China to respect
the basic rights of the people
inside its borders.
By releasing all political prisoners, including Mrs.
Kadeer's sons and Mr. Celil, in East Turkestan the
Peoples Republic of China could take a positive step in
the right direction with regards to providing basic
rights to the Uyghur people.
The WUC hopes that the recent Resolution of the House of
Representatives of the United States of America would
serve as a precedence for the international community to
put more pressure on China urging it to cease violation
of the human rights of the Uyghur people.
