Uighur Advocates Hope Trump Returns to Tough Stance at Xi Summit The upcoming summit between Donald Trump and Xi Jinping in Beijing has raised hopes among advocates for China's Uighurs, a Muslim minority group subjected to mass detention and surveillance.
For many, this meeting represents a last chance for Trump to reprise his tough stance on human rights issues that defined his first term.
During his first term, the US led the charge in pressuring China over its treatment of Uighurs, imposing sanctions and blocking imports linked to forced labor.
