Boycott 2022 Beijing Olympics: Rights Sun Online Desk 21st May, 2021 08:19:52 A coalition of human rights group wants to boycott 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing as they believe, participating in the Olympics means supporting the China’s genocide against the Uyghur people. A coalition representing Uyghurs, Tibetans, residents of Hong Kong and others issued a joint statement on Monday calling for the boycott. It said that the Chinese government is committing genocide against the Uyghur people and waging an unprecedented campaign of repression in East Turkistan, Tibet and Southern Mongolia, as well as an all-out assault on democracy in Hong Kong. “Participating in the Beijing Olympic Games at this time would be tantamount to endorsing China’s genocide against the Uyghur people, and legitimising the increasingly repressive policies of the totalitarian Chinese regime,” the coalition said in a statement.
