Uyghur Genocide Vienna: The Uyghur community of Austria on Wednesday recently protested against the genocide of Uyghurs and other Turkic peoples in China on the pretext of controlling the Covid-19 pandemic by forcing a lockdown in areas of East Turkestan and imprisoning people inside homes without food and medical aid.
According to local media reports, several protestors carrying pictures of the Uyghurs who were killed by the Chinese government took out a rally from Christian-Broda-Platz to Heldenplatz in Vienna.
A large number of Uyghurs participated in this demonstration and raised slogans against the human rights violations and genocide by the ruling Chinese Communist Party, ANI reported.
The demonstration was led by the President of the Uyghur Diaspora in Austria, Mevlan Dilshat.
The protestors condemned the Chinese policy of hunger genocide in East Turkestan in the garb of efforts to control the Covid pandemic, the news agency reported.
The Chinese government, on the pretext of the COVID lockdown, trapped residents in their homes leaving them to starve.
Hundreds of viral videos and other posts on social media from East Turkistan show families across East Turkistan suffering starvation after being locked up in their homes for weeks.
Videos show the Uyghurs pleading with the Chinese government to let them out and bring them food to feed their starving children.
