China recently defended their education camps that target mostly Muslim minorities after the US government announced there would be import restrictions on products coming from the Xinjiang region. The US has also placed sanctions on Chinese politicians who are reportedly involved as some of the products from the region are made with slave labor. In the official report, it said "Xinjiang has built a large knowledge-based, skilled and innovative workforce that meets the requirements of the new era". They have claimed that these camps are necessary to provide support to those in poverty and to prevent terrorism.
