Abstract

Human Rights are things that should be owned by every person on this earth. As a country, China should provide protection for the rights of its people. However, the Chinese government is different because they actually committed gross human rights violations against the Uyghur ethnic group. The Uyghur ethnic group living in China always receives harsh treatment that is physically and mentally violent. Not only that, this ethnic group is forbidden to worship and carry out their daily life freely. On this matter, many hope that there will be a way out that can be given by the International Criminal Court for the crimes committed by the Chinese government. The ICC essentially also has the authority to give a trial in this case. What is happening to the Uyghur ethnic group is very sad and needs more and more special attention. Not to mention that the handling of this case requires a high level of focus.
