The United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and other countries have announced diplomatic boycotts. According to the plan, they will not send government officials to the Olympics to protest China’s treatment of Turkic Muslim Uighurs and other ethnic minorities, as well as civil society and human rights activists. As a symbolic protest against China’s “continuous genocide and crimes against humanity in Xinjiang,” the Biden administration announced on Monday that it had decided not to send an official US delegation to the Beijing Winter Olympics.

A spokesperson for the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on Tuesday that France has also “fully noted” the decision of the United States to boycott the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics and will consult with its European partners on the next step.
