Ladies and gentlemen, Good afternoon,

First of all, I’d like to thank the Committee on Present Danger: China for coordinating this effort and organizing this rally to urge the international community to take immediate actions to stop China from turning the 2022 Winter Olympics to “Genocide Games”.

As we all know, in the past 72 years, the People’s Republic of China has become a genocide juggernaut, crushing all its occupied nations and territories in its path, committing genocides one after another in front of the eyes of international community.

Since 1949, Southern Mongolia alone has experienced two major genocides: The first was carried out by the Chinese Government in collaboration of the Chinese settlers in Southern Mongolia in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Known as the “Movement for Purging the Members of National Separatist Group Inner Mongolian People’s Party”, this massive genocide campaign targeted the entire Mongolian population. Not only those who were tortured had to confess that they are members of the national separatist group Inner Mongolian People’s Party, but also they must provide the name of all of their family members, relatives and acquaintances as the members of the alleged separatist group. In some extreme cases, under unbearable tortures, those who exhaustively provided the names of the alleged members of the separatist group even confessed that their pets, livestock and household utensils are members of the Inner Mongolian People’s Party. Estimated 100,000 Mongolians were tortured to death, and a half million imprisoned, tortured and maimed. At that time, the total Mongolian population in Southern Mongolia was about 1.5 million. This means one out of three Mongolians was persecuted in this genocide campaign.

The second major genocide is the ongoing cultural genocide that China is committing in Southern Mongolia today. Following the crackdown of the large-scale protest against China’s newly initiated “Second Generation Bilingual Policy”, today the Government of China is launching a wholesale cultural genocide campaign, aiming to wipe out the Mongolian language, culture and identity from Southern Mongolia entirely.

“Speak Chinese and become a civilized person”, one of the slogans of this campaign, can be seen from TV screens to billboards, from kindergarten classrooms to college campuses, from major cities to remote villages.

An extensive coverage by Chinese official media reveals that waves of region-wide intensive trainings for the so-called “Firm Inculcation of Chinese Nationality Common Identity” have been launched across Southern Mongolia starting last December, targeting all walks of Mongolian population, including teachers, students, party members, government officials, ordinary workers and rural herders. According to a 47-page internal document, the goal of these trainings is to force all ethnic minorities to recognize and accept Chinese as their own and only identity.

The same is happening in Tibet and East Turkistan. An active genocide is being committed against the Uyghur population. Millions of Uyghurs are being locked up in concentration camps.

One thing the world must be reminded of is that today’s China is no longer just a regional colonizer that occupies Southern Mongolia, Tibet and East Turkistan, decimates their population, and eradicates their culture and identity, but also it is a global hegemony that is not shy about publicly claiming to dismantle the very foundation of democracy and human rights to reset the world order on its own term.

It is really the time for the rest of the world to overcome their political, religious, ethnic and ideological differences to united together to counter China, this unprecedented threat to the wellbeing of humanity.

Thank you
