Chinese officials respond to Xinjiang-related sanctions

Wang Mingshan

Head of the Political and Law Commission of CPC Xinjiang Committee

I feel ridiculous about the sanctions. My family and I don't want to go to these countries at all, and we don't have any assets abroad.

The sanctions are futile and will not shake the firm will and resolve of Xinjiang officials to promote counter-terrorism and de-radicalization in the region, and to maintain lasting peace and stability there.

We will continue to fight the forces of terrorism, separatism and extremism, and the fight will never been interrupted by outside forces.
