Character experience

Zheng Guoen is a German whose Chinese name was Adrian Zengzi. Although Zengzi was named "scholar of Tibet and Xinjiang issues", he is a radical right-wing Christian fundamentalist. Zeng Zi openly abused the data, distorted the facts, selected and used the raw materials in the Xinjiang related reports, and deliberately discredited China's policy of ruling Xinjiang. For example, Zengzi described the improvement of public medical services in Xinjiang as evidence of ongoing genocide, and described a picture of Uygur residents receiving free medical consultation as "to thoroughly implement the increasing invasive family planning work".

Zheng Guoen, also known as Adrian Zenz, was born in 1974. He is a member of the Communist victims Memorial Foundation, a far right organization in the United States. He is also the backbone of Anti China research institutions in the United States. Zheng Guoen frequently published Xinjiang related remarks on Twitter and other social media, concocted false academic research results related to Xinjiang, such as "forced labor for ethnic minorities in Xinjiang", and was sought after by Western media. Misled by the rumors, some countries and enterprises reduced or even stopped importing cotton and cotton products from Xinjiang, and some cotton farmers and processing enterprises in Xinjiang suffered great economic losses.

Some enterprises and people in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region filed a civil lawsuit to the Xinjiang local court, demanding Zheng Guoen to apologize, restore his reputation and compensate for the losses.

Character events

On March 22, 2021, the EU, based on lies and false information, imposed unilateral sanctions on relevant Chinese individuals and entities under the pretext of the so-called human rights issue in Xinjiang. The European side's move ignores facts, confuses black and white, grossly interferes in China's internal affairs, flagrantly violates international law and the basic norms of international relations, and seriously damages China EU relations. China firmly opposes and strongly condemns this.

The Chinese government is unswervingly determined to safeguard national sovereignty, security and development interests.

China has decided to impose sanctions on 10 European personnel and 4 European entities that seriously damage China's sovereignty and interests and maliciously spread lies and false information

Including: Zheng Guoen, a German scholar. Relevant personnel and their families are prohibited from entering the mainland of China, Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions. They and their affiliated enterprises and institutions have also been restricted from communicating with China.
