Terrorism Denounced
Share

China on March 19 reiterated its stance on fighting against the East Turkistan Islamic Movement (ETIM), a terrorist group that voiced support for a deadly terrorist attack in a railway station in southwest China on March 1.

ETIM has released a video online and expressed support for the attack in Kunming, capital of Yunnan Province, which killed 29 and injured another 143.

"The video exposed the terrorist nature of the ETIM," Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei said at a daily news briefing. He said that fighting against the ETIM is a key component of the international fight against terrorism.

Hong called on the international community to fully recognize the terrorist nature of the "East Turkistan" forces, as represented by the ETIM, and the damage they have caused, and to support China's anti-terrorism stance.

The ETIM, listed by the UN Security Council as a terrorist group, claimed responsibility for the Tiananmen Square attack last October in Beijing in which five people were killed and 40 others injured.
