China responded with swift condemnation Wednesday after U.S. Congress overwhelmingly approved a bill targeting its mass crackdown on ethnic Muslim minorities, further straining ties after President Donald Trump last week signed separate human rights legislation on Hong Kong.

The Uighur Human Rights Policy Act denounces the detention of an estimated 1 million Uighurs, Kazakhs and others in China's far west Xinjiang region, home to the predominantly Muslim minority groups. It would require the State Department to evaluate whether Chinese officials would meet the criteria for sanctions for their roles in enacting oppressive policies.

"It is regrettable that U.S. Congress has not only turned a blind eye to Xinjiang's efforts to combat terrorism and protect human rights in accordance with laws and regulations, but also to Xinjiang's current economic development, social stability, national unity and religious harmony," the commission said.

Beijing says the measures are necessary to combat terrorism and eradicate religious extremism. The government says the facilities offer vocational training to those without employable skills.

China suspends U.S. military visits to Hong Kong, announces sanctions against several U.S.-based NGOsThe measures were announced by China’s Foreign Ministry in response to U.S. legislation passed last week supporting anti-government protesters Perhaps Western democracies should stop meddling in other's internal affairs as most really do not care and treat it as some kind of entertainment or some way to make money. Always best to get one's own house in order as entertainment is great until money runs out. ............ China has hit back at the US suspending visits of US military vessels n aircraft to HK n sanctioning various US based non government NGOs - one of them being NED. I suggest that China bar all behind the riots from entering China HK and Macau. NED has funded the likes of Jimmy Lai, Martin Li, Anson Chan, Alan Leong, Tanya Chan etc. Government should follow the money. All should be arrested.
