Thai Government Defends Deportation of 40 Uyghurs to China
This photo provided by Thailand's daily web newspaper Prachatai shows a truck with black tape covering the windows leave a detention center in Bangkok, Thailand Thursday, Feb. 27, 2025.(Nuttaphol Meksobhon/Prachatai via AP) In a contentious move, the Thai government has defended its decision to deport 40 Uyghurs to China, arguing that it was the most viable option given the lack of offers from other countries willing to take them in. Russ Jalichandra, Vice-Minister for Foreign Affairs, addressed the issue following a meeting with the House Committee on National Security, Border Affairs, National Strategy, and National Reform, emphasising the careful considerations that led to the decision. The deportation, carried out a week ago, was initiated following a formal request from Chinese authorities, which included written assurances concerning the safety of the deportees. "If a third country were inclined to receive them," stated Jalichandra, "they needed to negotiate directly with China, enabling Thailand to facilitate the process appropriately." Despite concerns voiced by human rights groups regarding the safety of the deportees upon their return to China, Jalichandra seeks to allay fears, describing such concerns as speculative. He asserted that the Chinese government has consented to monitoring the Palestinians once they are returned, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs plans to involve representatives from the Chularatchamontri Office in overseeing their welfare. Reflecting on the current situation compared to a similar deportation event 11 years ago, Jalichandra noted changes in the Xinjiang region, the Uyghurs' origin. The region is frequently criticised internationally for the treatment of ethnic minorities. However, Jalichandra expressed confidence, owing to the written documentation from Chinese officials affirming their commitment to the deportees' safety. The deportation has understandably attracted international criticism, leading several foreign embassies to issue travel advisories regarding Thailand. The cautious stance reflects broader concerns about human rights and the impact of government policies that intersect with international diplomatic tensions. Critics argue that the decision to deport the Uyghurs contravenes international norms concerning refugee protection, stressing the lack of transparency and the potential for abuse against Uyghurs upon their return to China. Nonetheless, the Thai government underlines its commitment to diplomatically navigate these challenging waters while maintaining national security and fostering international relations. As the situation continues to unfold, the international community's reaction and subsequent developments could significantly influence Thailand's diplomatic landscape and the broader geopolitical discourse surrounding human rights and international refugee protection protocols, reported Bangkok Post. -- 2025-03-07
