Arab countries have helped China escape impunity by repressing Uyghurs

In a Washington Institute report, he tried to answer a question about why Arab countries, especially the Gulf, left China unpunished for raping Uighurs.
Haitham Hassanein's report, entitled "Arab countries allow China to escape its action to suppress Uighurs," began to seek its response, saying: "Before the withdrawal of Qatar, the six member states of the Cooperation Council of the Gulf had signed a message in favor of China, Despite their sharp differences on many other issues, one explanation is that all these countries are somewhat authoritarian and do not appreciate foreign interference in their affairs and that, according to the interference in China's internal affairs makes them vulnerable to similar interference, for example, Saudi Arabia does not wish to create greater international pressure than it already does, and already on the question of Jamal Khashoggi face ".
The report attributes the Gulf's stance to repression of pro-Chinese Uyghur Muslims to the fear of political Islam: this concern has intensified in many Arab governments after 2011, when uprisings in the region and the Power acquired by political Islamists coincided with a spike in jihadist terrorism that destabilized stability in many countries. Since then, Arab leaders have been increasingly disturbed by conflicts based on religious faith and most have linked political Islam to terrorism. As such, their national counterterrorism efforts have made them sympathetic to China's claim that the crackdown on Uighurs was aimed at fighting terrorism.
Other reasons cited in the report include the desire for economic development: the China Belt and Road Initiative ("Initiative") seeks to link Asia and Europe to an ambitious set of projects land and maritime infrastructure, many of them in the Middle East. So far, Beijing has concluded cooperation agreements under this initiative with 18 Arab countries, while Chinese companies have signed contracts worth $ 35.6 billion, of which 1 $ 2 billion for local energy and manufacturing sectors. In addition, trade between China and Arab countries reached $ 244.3 billion last year, and the government is preparing for two investment conferences early next month – the fourth Sino-Arab exhibition and the third Sino-Arab economic summit. Such relations give the Arab countries another reason not to criticize China, as Beijing reminded them to do: no one believes that China is too big to react, because the Arab countries have many relations political and military with China. The defense of the Uyghurs is not worth the risk of these relations. China has a lot of global influence and is clearly not afraid to confirm it. The Arab countries are therefore very afraid to hold China responsible for what is happening in Xinjiang for fear of urging them to take various punitive measures against it.
