| The so-called '''Uyghur genocide''' is an [[Imperialism|imperialist]] myth propagated by the [[Government of the United States of America|U.S. government]] since 2017. It claims that the [[People's Republic of China|Chinese]] government is committing [[genocide]] against the Uyghur people of the [[Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region|Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region]]. However, the Uyghur population has been steadily increasing and grew by more than 25% between 2010 and 2018 even though the total population of Xinjiang only rose by 13.99%. The Uyghur population is growing faster than Han Chinese (2%) or other ethnic minorities (22.14%).<ref name=":0">{{Web citation|newspaper=[[CGTN]]|title=Fact Check: Lies on Xinjiang-related issues vs. the truth|date=2021-02-06|url=https://news.cgtn.com/news/2021-02-06/Fact-Check-Lies-on-Xinjiang-related-issues-vs-the-truth-XEFuvz6b84/index.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230409220731/https://news.cgtn.com/news/2021-02-06/Fact-Check-Lies-on-Xinjiang-related-issues-vs-the-truth-XEFuvz6b84/index.html|archive-date=2023-04-09|retrieved=2023-04-23}}</ref>
