Australian Uyghur Groups Call On the Government to Help Stop CCP ‘Genocide’ Australian Uyghurs have rallied in front of the federal parliament in Canberra on Monday, calling for the Australian government to recognize what Beijing is doing in the Xinjiang region as a genocide. “If they don’t listen now, a whole community, the whole Uyghur nation, is going to disappear,” Ramila Chanisheff, president of the Australian Uyghur Tangritagh Women’s Association, told AAP. “This is the 21st century. How does genocide occur in the 21st century?” Protestors attend a rally for the Uyghur community at Parliament House on March 15, 2021, in Canberra, Australia. (Photo by Sam Mooy/Getty Images)
