The Chinese regime has appointed a new governor for Xinjiang where the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is accused of carrying out mass detentions and other abuses against members of the Uyghur and other Muslim minority groups.

A former vice governor, Erkin Tuniyaz gained some notoriety for delivering a vociferous defense of the communist regime’s policies in the northwestern region, particularly the use of facilities critics call detention centers.
