Pompeo says Biden administration sending ‘mixed signals’ on China's human rights abuses
Fox News
Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Saturday that the Biden administration has sent "mixed signals" on the Chinese persecution of religious minorities in Xinjiang -- and called for the administration to impose "real costs" on Beijing.
"The administration to date has sent mixed signals," Pompeo said. "Secretary [Antony] Blinken, who is my successor, said that he too believed genocide has taken place and was ongoing -- Im glad he said that because the facts clearly support whats taking place." Blinken said that his judgement is that "genocide was committed against the Uyghurs and that hasn’t changed." However, U.N. Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield, in her confirmation hearing, said that designation was being reviewed amid concerns that procedures were not followed.More Related News
