In the vast, militarized landscape of China's western frontier sits the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. A place rich in ancient trade and culture, but sadly, now synonymous with state-sponsored horror. Renowned for its network of internment camps, mass surveillance, and systematic attempts to erase Uyghur identity, Xinjiang has recently become the center of a disturbing trend: a significant expansion of organ transplant infrastructure in an area that has one of the lowest rates of voluntary organ donations in China.

In a bold and necessary move, the French National Assembly’s Taiwan Friendship Group has publicly rebuked a controversial pro-Beijing report authored by Sophia Chikirou of the far-left La France Insoumise (LFI) party. The group condemned the report for parroting Chinese Communist Party (CCP) propaganda and distorting international law, specifically the United Nations’ position on Taiwan.

In July 2025, Tibetan singer Asang also known as Tsukte or Ah Sang was arrested in Ngawa, Sichuan, along with fellow musician Pelkyong. Their crime? Posting a Tibetan cover of “Prince of Peace”, a song honoring the Dalai Lama’s 90th birthday.

But here’s where it gets really interesting. The Chinese Communist Party (the CCP) doesn’t like anything it can’t control, especially religion. Under Xi Jinping, every religious group has to play ball with the state, or else. Temples like Shaolin aren’t just temples anymore. They’re propaganda machines in monk’s robes.

In a powerful and heartfelt show of solidarity, the United States once again gave voice to the voiceless during Captive Nations Week 2025. Held in the Rayburn House Office Building of the U.S. Congress, the congressional briefing brought renewed attention to the ongoing oppression of East Turkistan, Tibet, and Southern Mongolia under the rule of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). It was a moment marked not only by solemn reflection but by steadfast commitment to truth, justice, and the enduring struggle for freedom.

The U.S. House of Representatives has passed the “Honest Maps” amendment, a significant legislative move aimed at curbing the depiction of Taiwan as part of the People’s Republic of China in any official maps produced or displayed by the U.S. Department of Defense. The amendment was passed on July 18 as part of the broader 2026 Defense Appropriations Bill.

The Zangmu Dam, located on the Yarlung Tsangpo River (which becomes the Brahmaputra in India), is one of the closest and most significant Chinese hydropower projects with indirect but serious implications for the Rasuwagadhi–Bhote Koshi river system.

In a decisive message delivered to the 15th Tibetan Religious Conference, His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama affirmed that the sacred institution of the Dalai Lama will continue. In a pre-recorded video, the spiritual leader declared that the recognition of his next reincarnation will be carried out exclusively by the Gaden Phodrang Trust, the spiritual office he established. With this announcement, His Holiness has laid to rest years of speculation and firmly placed the future of the Dalai Lama lineage in the hands of Tibetans, untainted by political interference.

As the 90th birthday of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama approaches, celebrations are taking place around the world except in #Tibet, where the people who revere him most are unable to mark the occasion freely. In #Lhasa, the traditional seat of Tibetan spiritual and political life, there are no visible signs of celebration.
