YouTube Description
as posted by the channelHey Geeks! It feels great to talk about something not Trump related, so let’s get our world on and dive in!
1. Russain Dissident Alexei Navalny - Alexei Navalny, Russia key opposition leader, was arrested last week as soon as he landed in a Russian airport. To bring you up to speed, he had just spent five months in Germany recovering from a poison attack. He was poisoned with a Russian nerve agent called Novichok that the Soviet Union developed during the Cold War. He fell into a coma and was then airlifted to Germany where he made a miraculous recovery. He figured he would be detained when he got back, but he insisted on returning because he said that staying in Europe in exile would only be a gift to Putin.
2. China’s Genocide Against Uighurs - on Secretary Pompeo’s last day in office, he made a move that was celebrated by many human rights activists. He declared that the Chinese government is committed genocide and crimes against humanity for it’s abuse against the Muslim Uighur minority based in the Northwestern part of China in an area called Xinjiang. This is a big deal and a great move for a lot of reasons, but it needs some serious follow up. 2 million Uighurs have been imprisoned in so-called “re-education camps” where they are tortured, physically and sexually abused, forced to become infertile, and brainwashed with propaganda.
