China’s reach beyond its borders: are Uyghurs safe in exile? | Eastern Express

Does escaping China mean escaping Beijing’s control? Uyghur activist Dolkun Isa joins TVP World’s Eastern Express to discuss intimidation abroad, pressure on families and the responsibilities of countries offering refuge. The conversation examines China’s influence in Central Asia, including Kazakhstan’s prosecution of activists protesting abuses in Xinjiang. Drawing on Isa’s experience of a Chinese-requested Interpol Red Notice, we explore how international policing mechanisms can be used against exiles. What would effective protection look like for people who remain vulnerable long after crossing a border?
