World Uyghur Congress
The World Uyghur Congress (WUC) (; ) is an international organisation of exiled Uyghur groups that aspires to "represent the collective interest of the Uyghur people"〔Alingod, Chris. (Ethnic Clashes In China Continue As White House Calls For Restraint ). AHN. 7 July 2009〕 both inside and outside of the Xinjiang Autonomous Region of the People's Republic of China. The World Uyghur Congress describes itself as a nonviolent and peaceful movement that opposes what it considers to be the Chinese occupation of East Turkestan, and advocates rejection of totalitarianism, religious intolerance and terrorism as an instrument of policy. The Congress is funded in part by the National Endowment for Democracy or NED of US.
The Congress was formed in mid-April 2004 at a meeting in Munich, Germany, as a collection of various exiled Uyghur groups including the World Uyghur Youth Congress (WUYC) and East Turkestan National Congress (ETNC).〔(Newly founded World Uyghur Congress calls for peaceful solution in East Turkestan ). Unrepresented Nations and Peoples Organization. 22 April 2004〕 Rebiya Kadeer is the current president, elected in 2006. Dolkun Isa is current General Secretary, reelected in 2006. A prominent businesswoman and political activist, Kadeer has been in exile in the United States since 2005 after six years' imprisonment in China for "leaking state secrets".〔Beach, Sophie. (Chinese Dissident Here Describes Attacks by Beijing’s Secret Agents ).China Digital Times. 3 April 2009〕
The Chinese government has designated the WUC and its affiliate groups as a terrorist organisation, who it says have attempted to form a legitimate cover for their "illegal motives" to separate China.〔
==Formation==
The World Uyghur Congress is an umbrella term for an organisation of once small, weak and fractious Uyghur nationalist groups, including the World Uyghur Youth Congress, formed in November 1996〔Shen (2007), p. 101.〕 and the East Turkestan National Congress.〔Chung, Chien-peng. (2006). (Confronting Terrorism and Other Evils in China: All Quiet on the Western Front? ) ''China and Eurasia Forum Quarterly.'' 4(2), 75—87.〕 On 18 April 2004, these groups united, with Erkin Alptekin serving as the first president and Dolkun Isa is General Secretary since 2004 of the unified group; he served until 2006, when Rebiya Kadeer was elected as at the second General Assembly meeting held on 24–27 November 2006.〔Keung, Nicholas. (Fighting for the rights of Uyghurs ). ''Toronto Star''. 8 December 2006〕〔(Introducing the World Uyghur Congress ). World Uyghur Congress.〕 The Congress has convened three assemblies since its inception—in 2004, 2006, and 2009. As part of the East Turkestan independence movement, it is a member of the Unrepresented Nations and Peoples Organization. The organisation itself is based primarily in Munich, where a large Uyghur diaspora lives.〔Mackerras, Colin. ('Pivot of Asia' sees China-Pakistan maneuvers ). ''Asia Times Online''. 13 August 2004〕 There are no known links between the WUC and the East Turkestan Islamic Movement.〔(China says international extremists backing terrorism in Xinjiang ).
