国务卿安东尼·布林肯发表声明，要求与我方伙伴共同加强对践踏人权的行为实行问责
今天，美国与我方伙伴根据全球马格尼茨基（Global Magnitsky）制裁计划共同对新疆生产建设兵团党委书记王君正和新疆公安厅厅长陈明国实施制裁。我们的行动针对的是在新疆严重践踏民族和宗教少数群体人权的行为。
对王君正和陈明国的认定以针对中华人民共和国在新疆骇人听闻的暴行发布的13818号行政命令为根据。王君正被认定为在新疆生产建设兵团工作，或据称在新疆生产建设兵团工作，或者间接或直接代表新疆生产建设兵团的人员。陈明国被认定为担任新疆公安厅负责人或官员的外国人员，该机构本身或其成员从事与陈某任期有关的严重践踏人权的行为。
在国际社会的谴责日益高涨之际，中华人民共和国仍继续在新疆从事种族灭绝和反人类的罪行。美国重申，要求中华人民共和国停止镇压新疆穆斯林占多数的维吾尔人以及其他民族和宗教少数派群体，包括释放所有在拘押营和拘留所被任意拘押的人员。
今天，我们采取的这项行动与我方的英国、加拿大和欧盟（European Union）伙伴相互配合。作为今天他们行动的一部分，我方伙伴还对与新疆地区和其他国家的暴行有联系的践踏人权的涉案人员实施制裁。这些行动表明，我们继续承诺采取多边行动促进对人权的尊重，并揭发中华人民共和国政府和中国共产党应对这些暴行负责的人员。
美国坚持通过全球马格尼茨基制裁计划和类似的努力为全球反对严重践踏人权的行为发挥强大的主导作用。有针对性的制裁，包括制裁侵犯或践踏人权的人员，是遏制恶意行为者和倡导问责制的重要工具。
美国对今天欧盟更广泛的涉及人权事务的制裁行动表示赞赏。我们欢迎欧盟通过这个有力的工具在全球范围内加强对践踏人权的人员追究责任。跨大西洋的联合反应向侵犯或践踏国际人权的人员发出了强烈的信号。我们将与志同道合的伙伴共同采取进一步行动。我们将继续支持我们在世界各地的伙伴，要求立即制止中华人民共和国的罪行，为众多的受害者伸张正义。

Office of the Spokesperson
For Immediate Release
STATEMENT BY SECRETARY ANTONY J. BLINKEN
Promoting Accountability for Human Rights Abuse with Our Partners
Today, the United States, in unity with our partners, is imposing sanctions against Wang Junzheng, the Secretary of the Party Committee of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps (XPCC) and Chen Mingguo, Director of the Xinjiang Public Security Bureau (XPSB) under the Global Magnitsky sanctions program.  We are doing so in response to serious human rights abuse against members of ethnic and religious minority groups in Xinjiang.
Wang Junzheng and Chen Mingguo are being designated pursuant to Executive Order 13818 in connection with the People’s Republic of China’s (PRC) appalling abuses in Xinjiang.  Wang is being designated for having acted or purported to act for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly, the XPCC.  Chen is being designated for being a foreign person who is a leader or an official of the XPSB, which has engaged in, or whose members have engaged in, serious human rights abuse related to Chen’s tenure.
Amid growing international condemnation, the PRC continues to commit genocide and crimes against humanity in Xinjiang.  The United States reiterates its calls on the PRC to bring an end to the repression of Uyghurs, who are predominantly Muslim, and members of other ethnic and religious minority groups in Xinjiang, including by releasing all those arbitrarily held in internment camps and detention facilities.
We have taken this action today in solidarity with our partners in the United Kingdom, Canada, and the European Union.  As part of their actions today, our partners also sanctioned human rights abusers in connection with the atrocities occurring in Xinjiang and other countries.  These actions demonstrate our ongoing commitment to working multilaterally to advance respect for human rights and shining a light on those in the PRC government and CCP responsible for these atrocities.
The United States is committed to playing a strong leadership role in global efforts to combat serious human rights abuse, through the Global Magnitsky sanctions program and similar efforts.  Targeted sanctions, including against those who violate or abuse human rights, are an important tool to discourage malign actors and promote accountability
The United States applauds the EU’s broader human rights sanctions action today.  We welcome the EU’s use of this powerful tool to promote accountability for human rights abuse on a global scale.  A united transatlantic response sends a strong signal to those who violate or abuse international human rights, and we will take further actions in coordination with likeminded partners.  We will continue to stand with our allies around the world in calling for an immediate end to the PRC’s crimes and for justice for the many victims.
