NBA player calls out Trudeau for Canada’s inaction on Uighur ‘genocide’

NBA star and human rights campaigner Enes Kanter Freedom says he is frustrated with what he calls a lacklustre response from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to his calls for more action to help Uighur Muslims in China.

The basketball player, who is currently a free agent after being cut by the Houston Rockets earlier year, said he wrote to Trudeau last month to encourage the Liberal government to take a harder line on China at a time when the country is allegedly committing a genocide against a Turkic minority in the country’s Xinjiang province.
