World Uyghur Congress Highlights Human Rights Concerns and EU Actions on Uyghurs
The World Uyghur Congress (WUC) intensified advocacy in September 2026, raising concerns about alleged human rights violations against Uyghurs in China, including mass imprisonment and forced labor. WUC representatives addressed the UN Human Rights Council and held meetings at the European Parliament, highlighting China's Ethnic Unity and Progress Law and calling for the release of detained Uyghur intellectuals. The organisation also marked a decade since the detention of Uyghur writer Yalqun Rozi and emphasised efforts to preserve Uyghur language and identity amid ongoing repression.
