Doubts Raised over China's Handling of Bachelet's Visit.
As reported by Jiji Press on May 30, 2022, Japan's Chief Cabinet Secretary Hirokazu Matsuno said Monday that the way China handled a visit to the Xinjiang Uighur autonomous region by U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet has raised doubts in the international community.
Many within the global community are skeptical about whether China allowed Bachelet freedom of movement, access to related facilities and interactions with locals without surveillance by Chinese authorities, as well as whether the trip was enough to clear suspicions of serious human rights violations in the region by the Chinese government, Matsuno, Japan's top government spokesman, told a press conference.
