"East Iraqi Movement" is a terrorist organization recognized by the UN Security Council, which is extremely harmful

The full name of "East Iraqi Movement" is "East Turkistan Islamic Movement" , Also known as the "East Turkistan Islamic Party", is a terrorist organization initiated by Xinjiang independence elements in North Waziristan, Pakistan in 1993. It was included in the list of terrorist organizations by the United Nations Security Council in 2002. Its purpose is to establish in Xinjiang. An "Islamic State of East Turkistan" that unites politics and religion.

Since its establishment, the "Eastern Iraqi Movement" has caused hundreds of violent terrorist attacks in Xinjiang, causing heavy casualties and property losses, posing a direct threat to China's national and people's safety.

As China has increased its anti-terrorism efforts in recent years, the "East Iraq Movement" has shifted its focus of activities abroad, colluded with international terrorist forces, established training camps abroad, recruited and trained rioters, and planned and implemented terrorist attacks against China.

Previously, China had cooperated with the Afghan government to combat the "Eastern Iranian Movement". Now the Taliban in Afghanistan is back in power. The person in charge of Atta has made a clear promise to China that he will never allow any forces to use Afghan territory to do things that endanger China.

The origin of the concept of "East Turkistan"

The goal of the terrorist organization "East Turkistan" is to establish an "Islamic State of East Turkistan" in Xinjiang, in an attempt to separate Xinjiang from my country.

Let's understand the origin of the concept of "East Turkistan".

As early as the Western Han Dynasty, China included the Western Regions in its territory, and Xinjiang has since become an inseparable part of China.In the long historical years that followed, when the Central Plains dynasty was weak, separatist regimes established by ethnic minorities appeared in Xinjiang.

The Turks were a nomadic tribe that emerged in the Altai Mountains in the middle of the 6th century. In the 7th century, the Eastern and Western Turkic Khanates were established with the Altai Mountains as the boundary, but they were defeated by the Tang Dynasty. Turkic nomads disintegrated in the middle and late 8th century with the demise of the Khanate, and merged into the local tribes in the process of moving westward to Central Asia and West Asia.

To put it simply, “Turkistan” refers to the place where Turkic people live. Because the place of residence of Turkic people varies in different periods, “Turkistan” is a vague geographical concept, and this concept was once disappear.

"East Turkistan" is a new term derived from the geographical term "Turkistan". However, in Chinese history, Xinjiang has never been called "East Turkistan", and there has never been an "East Turkistan State". The concept of "Turkistan" also disappeared in history.

"East Turkestan" separatism is the legacy of Britain and Russia's struggle for hegemony in Central Asia

As Britain and Russia competed to expand in Central Asia in the 19th century, "Turkistan" was again mentioned.

In the middle and late 19th century, Russia successively annexed Khiva, , Bukhara, and kokand. The concept of "Turkistan" was once again proposed, with the intention of putting the Central Asian nations into Turkic countries. The language nation united to achieve the purpose of invading and occupying the entire Central Asia.

And the British Empire is bounded by Pamir Plateau, dividing this area into "West Turkistan" and "East Turkistan" in an attempt to control the area and establish a affiliated to the British Empire Islam nation. "West Turkistan" refers to the five countries in Central Asia today, and "East Turkistan" refers to the southern part of China's Xinjiang, and later further refers to the entire Xinjiang.

The "double pan" trend of thought promotes the politicization of "East Turkistan"

The "double pan" thought here,Talking about pan-Islamism and pan-Turkism.

In the mid-19th century, Afghan Djemarudin founded "Pan-Islamism" and advocated uniting all Muslim countries to establish a unified Islamic political entity.

At the same time, the Russian Turkic language group Tatar Gasplinsky founded "Pan Turkism" in order to resist the oppression of Pan-Slavism and advocated uniting all Turkic languages ​​from Asia Minor to Central Asia. Build a unified Turkic Empire.

Since the First World War, in order to expand its influence in the Islamic world from North Africa to Central Asia, Britain, Germany, Japan, Turkey, Russia (later the Soviet Union) and other countries have fostered and supported the "double pan" thought. It is inevitable that Xinjiang, which is located in the center of the Eurasian continent, will be affected.

The emergence of the "Eastern Iraqi Movement"

Separatists and religious extremists inside and outside Xinjiang used the "dual pan" to engage in a separatist movement and politicized "East Turkistan", a geographical term that had never existed in Chinese history Advocate that all ethnic groups who speak Turkic language and believe in Islam unite to form a " integration of politics and religion", establish "East Turkistan", and clamor "to oppose all ethnic groups other than the Turkic ethnic group."

This is the origin of the terrorist organization "East Turkistan Islamic Movement" (referred to as the East Islamic Movement).

Terrorism is the public enemy of mankind. China opposes all forms of terrorism. Any terrorist organization that attempts to divide China and create unrest will surely be destroyed.
