Lawmakers in the UK have unanimously declared China's ongoing crackdown in Xinjiang a "genocide", joining the US, Canada and the Netherlands in condemning Beijing's actions against Uyghurs and other Muslim minorities in the far-west region. CNN reported that following a debate, the House of Commons passed unopposed a non-binding resolution condemning "mass human rights abuses and crimes against humanity in Xinjiang Uyghur autonomous region."
