US’s Pelosi calls on world leaders to boycott China 2022 Olympics

US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi slammed China’s human rights violations against the Uighurs and other ethnic minorities.

Top United States lawmaker Nancy Pelosi has called for a boycott of the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, criticising China for human rights abuses and saying that global leaders who attend would lose their moral authority. US legislators have been increasingly vocal about an Olympic boycott or venue change. They have also lashed out at American corporations, arguing their silence about what the US State Department has deemed genocide against Uighur and other ethnic minorities in China was abetting the Chinese government.
