NEW YORK, Oct. 26 -- A number of Chinese experts and scholars briefed Chinese and foreign journalists on issues related to Xinjiang, Tibet and Hong Kong here on Friday.
The briefing was held by the Chinese mission to the United Nations and the China Society for Human Rights Studies (CSHRS).
Chang Jian, director of the Research Center for Human Rights at China's Nankai University, highlighted China's ethnic and religious policies, stressing that China is a unified multi-ethnic country where multiple religions coexist.
"China implements the policy of equality, unity and mutual assistance among all ethnic groups, respects and protects the people of all ethnic groups' right to freedom of religious belief, promotes the long-term harmonious coexistence of the people of all ethnic groups, and promotes the sustained and all-round development of the ethnic minorities in political, economic, social and cultural fields," he said.
Xu Jianying, a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, elaborated on the exploration and practice of counter-terrorism and de-extremization in Xinjiang, including the establishment of counter-terrorism and de-extremization mechanisms in accordance with the law, and emphasized that counter-terrorism and de-extremization are related to the basic human rights of people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang, including the right to survival and development.
"In light of China's national conditions, it is wise to explore and innovate policies against terrorism and extremism in a practical and innovative way and formulate measures tailored to local conditions," said Xu.
