Washington DC [USA], The East Turkestan Government in Exile (ETGE), in collaboration with the East Turkestan National Movement and the East Turkestan National Fund, has announced a march planned for Friday, from the House Blanca to the State Department in Washington DC.
The march aims to commemorate the 2009 Urumchi massacre and call for meaningful action against China's ongoing colonization, Uyghur genocide and occupation campaign in East Turkestan (now China's Xinjiang province).
The march will begin at the White House, 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, DC, and continue to the State Department, 2201 C St NW, Washington, DC.

Central to their demands is the appointment of a Special Coordinator for East Turkistan/Uyghur issues within the State Department.
This event is a call to action for the United States government to uphold its moral and legal obligations to prevent and punish China's ongoing genocide and crimes against humanity in occupied East Turkestan.
The organizers advocate for the official recognition of East Turkestan as an occupied territory, similar to Tibet. They emphasize the urgent need for the United States to fulfill its moral and legal responsibilities in addressing China's alleged genocide and crimes against humanity in East Turkestan.
This march represents a unified call for international attention and action to address the humanitarian crisis unfolding in the region. The event highlights growing global concerns and calls for concerted efforts to defend human rights and address geopolitical challenges in the Asia-Pacific region.
On Monday, the 103rd anniversary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), the party faced severe backlash from human rights organizations and ethnic groups over alleged human rights violations in Xinjiang, also known as East Turkestan.
The Swedish Uyghur Committee highlighted the CCP's dark legacy on social media, condemning what they describe as the party's "merciless invasion, occupation and colonization" in East Turkestan. The publication also accused the Chinese government of subjecting millions of Eastern Turks, including Uyghurs, to serious human rights violations.
