Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) has called on Airbnb to delist rentals in China\u2019s Xinjiang region over the ongoing genocide of the Uyghur minority there. In a letter to Airbnb CEO, Brian Chesky, the Florida senator said the company has property listings on land that belongs to the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, or XPCC.<\/p>\n<p>Rubio pointed out that Airbnb\u2019s business directly benefits a Chinese government agency that\u2019s running concentration camps for Uyghurs. The senator added, the U.S. must increase economic pressure on the Chinese Communist Party.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cThere are major American corporations who are either witting or unwittingly lobbyists on behalf of the official narratives and policy preferences of the Communist Party of China, and the reason is pretty simple,\u201d Rubio stated. \u201cAnd that is they go to them and say \u2018if you want to continue to have access to our marketplace, if you want to continue to be able to sell things here\u2026then we expect you to go talk to your [quote-on-quote] friends in American and get them to back off.&#8217;\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Rubio During CECC\u00a0Hearing on How the U.S. can Counter the CCP&#039;s Use of Economic Coercion\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Xm8k_3FrcTw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<p>Rubio also points out the XPCC is under <a href=\"http:\/\/Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps\">U.S. sanctions imposed by 45th President Donald Trump<\/a>.
