The cases of unjustly imprisoned Uyghurs in China, notably Ilham Tohti and Gulshan Abbas
Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, humanly speaking, I would like to express my total indignation and shame at what the Uyghur people in China have been suffering for too many years. More than one million Uyghurs are locked up in real concentration camps, where they are subjected to torture and forced labour. They suffer a constant violation of human rights through strong birth control and religious persecution. China is carrying out a real genocide, which has as its ultimate goal the extinction, not only cultural, of the Uyghur people. This morning, in plenary, Hungarian President Orbán, democratically elected by his own citizens, was the victim of instrumental attacks by a political part of this Parliament, which calls him a fascist. The same Europe that sells off entire sectors of our economy to a communist regime, which constantly tramples on the human rights of people who do not align themselves with single thinking. And all this is done in total silence, a silence no longer sustainable, made of pain and suffering of human beings who die in indifference.
