Misinformation in Xinjiang: Dubious sources behind 'millions detained' figure
08:41

In a recently published investigative article, independent news website The Grayzone rebutted accusations posed by Western media that millions of Uygurs had been detained in Xinjiang, thereby delivering a comprehensive rebuke to the claims. The article warned that misinformation about Xinjiang was igniting a new Cold War crusade against China, and that major newsrooms should err on the side of caution when quoting such questionable studies. The Grayzone Contributor Ajit Singh spoke exclusively to CGTN to discuss his motivation behind the investigation and why he found the accusations alarming.
