December 18 has been designated by the United Nations as International Migrants Day.

Although people often set out in search of a better life, migration is frequently driven by coercive factors such as war, climate crisis, poverty, and political repression. For Uyghurs from East Turkestan, however, migration is not a choice it is a struggle for survival. It is not merely the crossing of a border, but an effort to protect one’s identity, faith, language, and family.

What is happening in East Turkistan today is not merely a matter of “migration.” It is a profound test for international law, universal human rights instruments, and the global conscience. Thousands of Uyghur families have been forcibly torn apart, while the language, culture, and collective memory of an entire people are being systematically threatened with extinction. Fundamental rights, including freedom of education and belief, are being restricted under the pretext of “security.”

International Migrants Day is not only about raising awareness; it is a call to amplify the voices of those who have been silenced and to reaffirm the human dignity of those forced into displacement.

One of the biggest rights taken away from Uyghurs is the right to be a family.
For many years, Uyghurs have been forced to assimilate and their families are being broken apart.
Young children are taken from their families and placed in orphanages, while parents are sent to detention camps.

On this day, when the world remembers human rights, it is our shared responsibility to remember the families torn apart in East Turkistan.

On December 10, World Human Rights Day, we made a press statement to raise a strong and united voice for oppressed regions. Sadly, instead of being a day to celebrate rights, December 10 has become a day to remember ongoing wars, occupations, and systematic human rights violations.

If You Do These Things, You Are Considered “Radical” by China!

When people show the behaviors on this list, the state not only labels them as “radical,” but also detains them by force in the centers China calls “education camps.”

In these camps, Chinese culture and atheism are forced on individuals; they are separated from their families for years, and in some cases, permanently.

The families left behind cannot even learn whether their relatives held in these centers are still alive.

Today, making this situation visible and raising our voices is the responsibility of all of us.

Exactly three years ago, on November 24 2022, dozens of Uyghurs lost their lives in a fire that broke out in Urumqi. Chinese authorities failed to respond adequately and the doors of the buildings had been sealed due to Covid measures. China had caused those trapped inside the building to remain locked in.

Happy East Turkistan Republic Day! Honoring the spirit of freedom and resilience since November 12, 1933.
" the name of the will to exists of a Nation"

12/11/2025

Throughout history, the people of East Turkistan declared their own state twice. The first was the East Turkistan Islamic Republic, proclaimed on November 12, 1933, and the second was the East Turkistan Republic, declared on November 12, 1944. Although these states did not last long, they became powerful symbols of the East Turkistani people’s enduring desire for independence.

We respectfully commemorate our martyrs who struggled for the freedom of the East Turkistani people.
