China Politburo Reviews Draft Law to Push Ethnic Unity Agenda

The Chinese government has announced plans to introduce a new law aimed at promoting ethnic unity across the country. The draft legislation was reviewed by the Politburo, the country's top leadership body, signaling its importance in Beijing's agenda. The proposed law is seen as the latest move in China's broader efforts to strengthen the integration and control of its ethnic minority populations. The government has been increasingly assertive in its approach, with measures that have drawn international criticism, particularly regarding the treatment of Uyghurs and other Muslim minorities in the Xinjiang region. The details of the draft law are not yet publicly available, but the announcement suggests the government's determination to further solidify its grip on ethnic affairs and ensure the dominance of the Han Chinese majority. The new legislation is likely to have significant implications for the rights and autonomy of ethnic minority communities across China.
