WASHINGTON: The United States on Friday condemned what it called a"state-led" social media campaign in China against US and other international companies for deciding not to use cotton from China's Xinjiang region over forced labor concerns.

A number of overseas retailers have faced a public backlash from Chinese consumers who have circulated statements from the brands on social media announcing they will cease sourcing from Xinjiang.
