UK “climate” aid helped build carbon capture schemes on occupied East Turkistan, enhancing China’s ability to exploit the resources of our occupied country while our people faced genocide and forced labor. The ETGE condemns this UK complicity and demands justice & accountability.

🇬🇧UK funding of carbon capture projects in East Turkistan (2016–2018) is deeply alarming.
At the height of mass detention of Uyghurs, aid may have supported state-linked industries—while the same tech was used to boost oil extraction.
