Uyghur people are seen holding banners while walking around the square during an event to commemorate the 'National Day of East Turkistan'. November 12th marks the Republic Day of East Turkistan, which is also known as Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of China, the Uyghur community living in The Netherlands, organized an event to commemorate the 'National Day of East Turkistan' and to keep fighting against the Chinese government in order to take back their independence. The Chinese government has reportedly detained more than a million Muslims in reeducation camps. Most of the people who have been arbitrarily detained are Uighur, a predominantly Turkic-speaking ethnic group primarily from Chinaís northwestern region of Xinjiang. Human rights organizations, UN officials, and many foreign governments are urging China to stop the crackdown.
