The chairman of the British parliament's foreign affairs committee said on Wednesday that the West should not be doing business with China's Huawei.

The United Nations estimates that more than a million Muslims have been detained in camps in the Xinjiang region. The U.S. State Department has accused Chinese officials of subjecting Muslims to torture, abuse"and trying to basically erase their culture and their religion." China denies mistreatment and says the camps provide vocational training and are needed to fight extremism.
