Criticism Over New Starbucks Outlets in Xinjiang
The opening of two Starbucks branches in Xinjiang, an area with a controversial legal record, has sparked widespread criticism from a U.S. Congressional committee and Uyghur rights organizations. They consider this move to be a way of whitewashing China's image regarding its violations of the rights of the Muslim minority, the Uyghurs. Despite Beijing's denial of these accusations and its claims that its policies have curbed extremism and organized economic development in the region, the openings come at a time when China is enforcing strict security measures against the Uyghurs and faces international allegations of committing crimes against humanity.
