The report did not use the word &#8220;genocide.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The report, which was released by the Office of the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights, found that China has undertaken &#8220;arbitrary and discriminatory detention&#8221; of Uyghurs and other Muslim minorities and that &#8220;allegations of sexual and gender-based violence, including of rape,&#8221; were credible.<\/p>\n<p>Both the United States and an independent tribunal in the United Kingdom have declared China&#8217;s actions to be genocide.<\/p>\n<p>U.N. investigators had the report on High Commissioner Michelle Bachelet&#8217;s desk nearly a year ago, the <i>Times<\/i> reported, but Bachelet, a former socialist president of Chile, delayed releasing it. Bachelet, whose term ended minutes after her office released the report,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/latest-news\/china-propaganda-outlet-uses-un-human-rights-chief-as-tool-to-whitewash-beijings-genocide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">visited<\/a> China in May, where she praised Communist Party officials and failed to mention the Uyghur genocide.<\/p>\n<p>Bachelet said at a recent news conference that &#8220;she had given priority to reaching agreement with Beijing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>International Service for Human Rights program director Sarah M. Brooks told the <i>Times<\/i> that the report is &#8220;the bare minimum&#8221; Bachelet and her office could have done. Diplomats in Beijing told the paper that the late release prevents Western governments and human rights groups from building &#8220;a robust response in the Human Rights Council, which starts its last session of the year in 12 days.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Trump administration pulled the United States out of the U.N. Human Rights Council, which has embraced anti-Semitism and covered up for human rights abusers such as China and Russia.
