Aymeric Monville is a French philosopher, director of the Les éditions Delga publishing house in Paris, and deputy editor-in-chief of La Pensée magazine. We are pleased to re-publish the following report of his recent (August 2023) trip to Xinjiang, China.

Britain’s youth have nothing to gain from the USA’s new Cold War

CP Political Committee slams new ‘Cold War’ hysteria
“Labour should develop a genuinely independent foreign policy for Britain, not join the new Cold War hysteria against China and Russia driven by the US White House and Pentagon”, John Foster told a two-day meeting of the Communist Party’s political committee yesterday (23 July 2020).
Is China holding millions of Uighurs in concentration camps?
