The US would urge its G7 allies to increase pressure on China over the use of forced labor in Xinjiang, home to the Muslim Uighur minority, a top White House official said on Friday.
US President Joe Biden is to attend a meeting of the G7 advanced economies in person in the UK in June, where he is expected to focus on what he sees as a strategic rivalry between democracies and autocratic states, particularly China.
Daleep Singh, deputy national security adviser to Biden and deputy director of the US National Economic Council, said the G7 meeting in Cornwall would focus on health security, a synchronized economic response to the COVID-19 pandemic, concrete actions on climate change, and “elevating shared democratic values within the G7.”
