Prior to the Beijing Olympics, which kicks off in February next year, international human rights groups have called on Olympic sponsors to take six steps, including supporting the United Nations’ independent investigation into China’s human rights issues. Human Rights Watch, an international NGO, released a message to all Olympic sponsors on the 12th of this month. The message calls for six steps, including proving that the business in China is free of human rights abuses and supporting the United Nations’ independent investigation into crimes against humanity in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. Regarding the Beijing Olympics, Democratic Speaker of the House Pelosi proposed a boycott to the leaders of each country in May, and Republican senators called for a change of venue. At the US-China summit meeting scheduled for the 15th of this month, President Xi Jinping is expected to invite President Biden to the Olympics, and the response is drawing attention.
