A

China denies this figure and claims that they are vocational training centres, intended to help people find jobs to keep them away from the temptation of Islamist extremism. In addition to these mass detentions, Beijing is also accused of forced sterilisations in the region.

Toutefois, des représentants du Fonds autorisés à se présenter aux élections ont obtenu un succès d’estime. Plusieurs d’entre eux sont entrés au conseil municipal des villes de Tomsk, où l’opposant aurait été empoisonné, et de Novossibirsk, en Sibérie. Un résultat qui montre aussi qu’un an avant les législatives, le pouvoir est parvenu à étouffer le vote contestataire, reste à savoir si d’ici là sa recette restera valable.

A

However, representatives of the Fund who were allowed to stand for election were successful in the elections. Several of them entered the city councils of the towns of Tomsk, where the opponent was allegedly poisoned, and Novosibirsk, in Siberia. This result also shows that one year before the legislative elections, the government has managed to stifle the protest vote, but it remains to be seen whether its recipe will remain valid until then.
