U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in a television interview on Wednesday ...

WASHINGTON - U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in a television interview on Wednesday that China’s treatment of Muslims, including the Uighurs, in western China was an “enormous human rights violation” and Washington will continue to raise the issue.

“This is not only an enormous human rights violation, but we don’t think it’s in the best interests of the world or of China to engage in this kind of behavior,” Pompeo told PBS. Punishing Beijing for its treatment of Muslim minorities, the U.S. government this week widened its trade blacklist to include some of China’s top artificial intelligence startups and announced visa restrictions on Chinese government and Communist Party officials it believes responsible for the detention or abuse of Muslim minorities in Xinjiang province.The Chinese Embassy in Washington, in a statement on Tuesday, denounced the visa action and said the U.S.

“We’re going to continue to talk about these human rights violations,” Pompeo said. “As the president has said in another context in Hong Kong, we want to make sure that these issues are handled in a way that is humane.”

where is that USA mass detention centre of the Cuban coast 🤔. Wicked evil hypocrite.

At least China is not dropping bombs and stealing resources of Muslim countries.

He need a mirror

Well then Mike, why are you allowing Betsy DeVos brother help the Chinese run those concentration camps while raking in millions ? Seems kind of disgusting to ' criticize ' the very thing that's making your friends rich

Democrats seem to be mad Pompeo called out the communist abuses.

But Saudis are a hoot...

But it’s still ok to hellfire them by drones, right?

Oops. There goes the trade talks. The Communist snowflakes can’t handle the truth

Kurds and Salvadorans might wish they were all Chinese, so they could get great care from Mr Pompeo!

He seems to need a mirror. 🤔

He needs to resign. A liar.

Just as you pulled out troops from Syria, you mentioned this hilarious joke try to draw china into the mud with Turkey huh? Dirty move.

Pompeo is supporting terrorism.

That is really a shameless speech. Me. Pompeo, pls clean your dirty as$ firstly.

Hey SecPompeo KidsInCages FuckingHypocrite

And what about US treatment of the Kurds?

you know how many Muslims killed and locked up by USA?

It's okay for Rohingya ConcentrationCamps at Mexican border this is not the US goverment caring about Uighurs but about going after China agenda

People in xinjiang live a happier life than people here

Killing a kid with a car is not?

So why Muslim countries stand with China, meanwhile President Trump ban Muslims from entering America.

This administration has no business to talk about human rights violation... With ANYBODY.. they have flushed the US right down the shitter to join other rights violating countries

Yet he is ok with his own human rights violations against Muslims. Hypocrisy defined.

GOP SecPompeo What abt your dearleader 's 'enormous human right violation on' our allies the Kurds who lost ovr 11,000 lives fighting Isis for us&is green-lighting their Slaughter by ano 1 of occupant1 's BFF Erdogan?! You& CorruptGOP are responsible!!! ShameOnYou !!!

okay so what abt Iraq, syria, afghanistan?

Religions is the world greatest problem. Now look how SoS is using it political manipulation in another country

I cannot believe I’m reading this!!!!! Did people forget about Iraq?!

This from the administration that cages children.

That’s so good. Suddenly they care about Muslims.

That 'shiny' object is pretty darn dull today. Meaningless fluff in light of whatever deal orange hitler made with Erdogan and Putin. For shame!

Everyone should review the latest research on the science of rights and one day the world may become a better place to live:

Doesn't even come close to our treatment of the KurdsBetrayedByTrump

We all seen you and trump sitting along side the Saudis playing right into there hands accepting gifts and praise from them. Fuckn Hypocrite!

Pompeo? Who is he? Another clown following behind Trump? Resign.

It's ok though if they are Kurds.

What about USG treatment of Americans by allowing NRA to run point on policies, such as gun control?

instead his boss Trump who gives the green light to bomb the Kurds ... that's all right?!... good! TrumpBetrayedTheKurds

Your own front door needs a lil bit of sweeping, sir

He needs to RESIGN too...

Mike Puppetpeo

Only took ten years to say anything about it.

Maybe you should talk about your boss treatment of non-white people in the same breath. Stand up for one but lay down for another....sad

And what about Turkey’s impending slaughter of the Kurds?

However, the United States treatment of the Kurdish allies is not!

SecPompeo what of the treatment of Christians in Turkey and the Middle East?

And SaudiArabia ‘s bonesaw murder of Khashoggi? What does .SecPompeo say about that? Right. 🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗

you can't wake a false sleeper. skip them

What about us?

Must be bad, this guy actually helps cover up the murder of journalists

Try more Pompeo, China is not only block people in their country they are censoring us here in the state

It is about time!

Mr. uncredibility

Finally!!!!!

And what about Donald Trump's treatment of Muslims?

Thank You sir !!! Don’t let the chinazi become more stronger !!! Otherwise, the whole world will be suffered from them.

But why allow Turkey to kill Kurds?

Hey Pompeo, how about the Kurds. Your action with Trump is getting them slaughtered. Pompeo and Trump have blood on their hands.

This guy is shameless

🤑😓

While bombing them on every other Muslim country is fine but your standards.

Muslims or Turks? Decide this first. It came to mind when Muslims or Turks became enemies of China.

Take a look at what China did to Xinjiang Muslims - concentration camps and live organs harvesting. There are even concentration camps for children. China is destroying their culture and religion. It’s much more horrible than US south border camp.

Pompeo you’ve lost any credibility you had ,which was little to begin with

Pomppoo professional lie, cheat.usa support terriost, dictator Sisi all inicient refugees where is USA keep sell weapons 400 billi.on dictators.yes pomppoo whom not learn lesson from history.look at Ottomans pictures again.

We have lost the moral high ground on human rights. Tossed it into the garbage. So Pompeo has no credibility on this.

so is kids in cages. Fix your own house BenghaziMike

Irony much?

Pompeo doesn't believe in human rights.

A tale of two contrasts. Maybe China needs to outright deny it, then send some beautifully written letters. That option worked for another country.

Isn’t Pompeo cute🤣 Hitting back at China for its treatment of Muslims. Syria also tortures its citizens and, Trump virtually hands over everything to Turkey to fight the Kurds in Syria. But, Syria doesn’t have what the USA wants. Kurds, well they fought ISIS with🇺🇸underTrump.

China’s treatment but not Trumps?

Think lard arse needs to look at what RacistPresident realDonaldTrump has just done to the Kurds who helped protect West from isis! KurdsBetrayedByTrump

At least China keeps those doggies on a short leash. Compared to Europe (and America, to a lesser extent) that allows them to run around and kill and maim at will.

Too bad Trump can’t see anything other than “Radical Islamic Terrorists” finally getting their due.

What about the Kurds

You mean like putting children in cages and taking children from their parents ?, yes!, I totally agree... any government doing that is violating human rights!.

You gain no respect from me.

I really don’t want to hear anything more from trump or his corrupt cabinet.

Bull shit

I’m sure he’s losing sleep

He must have thought the Pope was watching because his team is treating people the same at our border.

Says the man aiding the stealing of and imprisonment of babies.

But slaughtering the Kurds is ok! TraitorsSupportTraitorTrump

Speaking with what moral authority?

Yah too bad America is a fucking joke thanks to you and the GOP enabling traitors. China simply has to issue a few more patents to Ivanka and offer Trump a sweet hotel deal and we’ll look the other way on genocide.

And the U.S.’s treatment of asylum seekers is what exactly?

If he thinks they have it bad he should go visit some Trump concentration camps unannounced.

So that's what crocodile tears look like! I've always wondered.

😯

We all know SecPompeo could care less about human rights and Muslims. It is obvious he prefers corruption and obstruction of justice instead.

China has been doing this with Tibetans & hongkong from decades & now yuighurs. That's brutal communist regime. They don't spare anyone

You have no room to speak of justice after withdrawing from Syria. Criticism of China is cover for this administration continued abuse of immigrants. Period.

oh sure, and Turkey's genocidal attacks are okay?...
