💨 Abstract

The European Union has decided to maintain sanctions against Chinese officials accused of human rights violations in Xinjiang, contrary to Beijing's plans to ease counter-sanctions on EU lawmakers. The EU's decision stems from the lack of improvement in human rights conditions in Xinjiang, where the Uyghur minority faces severe persecution, including mass detentions, forced labor, and cultural erasure.
