China: President Should Ease Tension by Acknowledging Grievances
(New York) – Chinese President Hu Jintao, who on July 7, 2009 abruptly left the G8 Summit in Italy to return to Beijing to cope with the Xinjiang protests, should break with past practice and acknowledge Uighurs’ grievances, Human Rights Watch said today. Analysts expect that Hu will speak publicly about the developments in the coming days.
