China is a South Asian country, sharing borders with 14 countries including India. Its significance lies in its rise in the region and hegemonic influence over smaller countries through loans and the Belt and Road Initiative. China and India have fought a major war in the 60s and have disputes over the Aksai Chin and LAC, and tensions over the Indo-Pacific.
It is good job by China, they have all rights to have mass crackdown on jihadi groups and their green virus ( green religion) .
Whether Xinjiang – where the human cost has been heartbreaking – or Hong Kong ( fine edition of Cut the Clutter ) – where so far there has been no significant loss of life – President Xi has shown poor governance ability. In the former, an excessive response to disaffected citizens possessing little more than knives and axes. Without placing at risk the monopoly of the ruling party, the government could have allowed China to evolve into a more harmonious society. One million Muslims cannot be deprived of their most basic religious freedoms and human rights. A slightly more bland President, like Hu Jintao, would have been better for China as it makes difficult transitions.

I hope the US and the EU, too, continue to apply political and economic pressure on the Chinese State, targeted at exploiting whatever the cause of the dissent is.
How can I disappoint you …
