And im joining with the sports Manchester City on course to defend the f. A. Cup title after 18 past newcastle face arsenal in the semifinals. So then china is being accused of forcing it we go women into pregnancy check sterilization or abortion in a bid to slash birth rates an investigation by the Associated Press has found evidence of a 4 Year Campaign in North Western provinces chinas government denies the allegations saying theyre not based on facts will be live in beijing in just a moment but 1st alexia brown begins our coverage. Never forget the day chinese authorities told her 3rd child was illegal she says she was threatened told to pay a fine of more than 2. 00 and a half 1000. 00 should be locked up in an 10 minute camp. To give shot. And remove fetuses forcefully if they say its illegal to make you get an abortion those who didnt obey were sent to the camps now people there are terrified of giving birth. The Associated Press investigation is based on government statistics documents and interviews with women like a lawyer who say they knew people jailed for having too many children many received a prison sentence of years even decades government efforts to reduce birth rates and shinji young are both systematic and ruthless were talking the mass forced insertion of intra year to run contraceptive devices were talking threats of internment for those who violate Birth Control policies. Zain says the brutal crackdown is part of government efforts to control the way to get people many of whom a muslim to purge them of their faith and identity. The investigation found the government had spent hundreds of millions of dollars on Birth Control and shin jang province in northwest china birthrights their decreased by 24 percent last year compared with 4 percent nationwide but. They want to eliminate us but they cant kill all of us its not possible because the world is watching so theyre doing it step by step with policies like sterilization imprisonment or separating men and women and making them work as forced labor as china says the camps are for reeducation part of what it calls a struggle against terrorism but Rights Groups accuse beijing of locking up more than a 1000000 people to brainwash and punish them those not detained us spied on. Her neighborhood felt like an open air prison she tells how she was forcibly sterilized along with about 200 other we go women. We lost a part of our body we lost our identity as women we will never be able to have children again some women say theyve been left with long term injuries a reminder of everything theyve lost brian aljazeera. Lets get more on this with katrina you standing by for us in beijing in katrina this is a chilling report of the government say about it and why this needs to happen. Well the government saying that theyre basically just equalizing the Family Planning policy nationwide prior to 2014 families were allowed to have up to 3 children but then that changed and in 2014 they were subject to the same one child policy or that changed 22020162 or to child policy nationwide now it is true that hand women have since been subject to the same fines if they have more than 2 children but they are certainly not foreign into any detention camps or subject to any sort of forced abortions or forced sterilizations as weve seen nor is it in this Associated Press report conversely hand women actually around the country have been encouraged to have a 2nd child because of worryingly lower birth rates across china now we also know that. People who are members of the we could lead to have been strongly encourage not to marry other week but into the hand majority analysts say that this is another long term policy to dilute the population of the weaker population it does appear that that would be working we know in 1949 according to official figures 90 percent of the population john were weak as in 2018 only 47 percent were weak as now Chinas Foreign Ministry today on monday responded to this report essentially calling the Associated Press report fake news it has always maintained that its policies and our National Security issues designed to prevent terrorism and extremism and separatism that there are in response to very violent knife and bomb attacks in recent decades but as we heard just then many human Rights Groups disagrees saying that many of these measures are based on race and religion and not only do they say that up to 1000000 people are held in these detention camps which the government by the way calls for occasional Training Centers they say that many of these policies are designed to also erode the muslim week of religion and culture as well as put them in. Very strict almost suffocating levels of surveillance and katrina thanks for that katrina you there in beijing if we take a close look at the week a minority in china find that a predominately muslim group in the Northwestern Region of. China has been cracking down on their culture and identity around a 1000000 have been put in prison camps or reasons for detention ranged from openly practicing their religion having long beards or traveling abroad but china denies mistreating the week says tough security measures are necessary on separatists in the region take this on further we can speak to james libeled is an associate professor at La Trobe University also author of the book of ethnic policy in china is reform inevitable joins us now from melbourne mr libeled its hard to fathom this chilling is the word isnt it the government takes these sweeping measures to slash birth rates amongst weekers all the while encouraging growth of chinas han population. I mean this is pretty clearly systematic and intentional process of both cultural in demographic genocide thats been going on for more than 5 years in change and so it involves not only the massive term meant that you mentioned but also really orwellian system of surveillance as well as the systematic attack on the weaker Language Culture and religion coercive labor in Educational Programs and now we learned this pretty horrific campaign to reduce birth rates among sweeter women this phrase demographic genocide has been mentioned a few times in this latest coverage do you concur about that and also given that the International Community needs to step in. You know i think its a fitting term i mean i think just to put it in the context china has had a long history Eugenics Program not only among the city i think minority population but also its han majority this goes back over a century a belief that the party state needs to take active measures to weed out what they would call call the variance in the case of the one majority that leads to poverty you know poor poor hygiene poor education but in the case the government believes that low quality births also lead to political instability and acts of separatism terrorism and extremism and so this is been a longstanding concern of the party state and what weve seen in this new report is the evidence to back up its its pretty Chilling Effect on the lives of. Women right so should the International Community use that evidence thats been brought to the fore by the Associated Press. Something done at the United Nations for example. Most certainly i mean we are seeing pushback. In countries like the United States a stray cat and we did see a number of un special rapporteur was send a letter of concern about human right the tearing conditions in in china i suspect some of the pushback in geneva but i think quite importantly its important that we raise awareness about this outside the English Speaking liberal west in particular your audience in the middle east needs to understand whats happening and change on they Chinese Party status worked really hard to put out misinformation disinform ation on this issue its worked hard to coopt journalists from outside the western world to spin its narrative that these are but 9 set of policies seeking to shore up stability in the region they need to be exposed for what they are which as i said is an intentional systematic process of both cultural and demographic genocide of course the Chinese Government say its all just fake news and what they are doing in the region has to be done because of terrorism and security issues. You know its with great irony that theyve now caught on to this phrase that really started in the United States some months a trump a ministration really were an all out information war here with a with all saw ads spinning various narratives and what. About this report and the Underlying Research that was also done by adrian sense is that its fact based its informed it uses the evidence in the words of the Chinese Communist party that have been scraping the internet to demonstrate what its doing and its pretty hard to refute china will call it fake news. You know scholars academics n. G. O. S will continue to put this stuff out to hold beijing to account right would mention see how this develops and if indeed the International Community does take this on james like gold.
