It is sad that there were people such as Yao Wenjuan which cooperated with Westerners to demonize China.
"When Zhang and I were collecting information, we found no proof that Xinjiang has forced labor," Liu told the Global Times. She noted that all the overseas information in the Chinese version of the report were given to them by Yao, who also oversaw their analysis on "forced labor.''
Liu said that in May 2020, she handed in the first draft of the report to Yao, which "she was not satisfied with'' and wrote in the email that she felt it was "hard to submit it after comparing ours with the report written by our colleagues in the US."
"The report from the US concluded that there was forced labor in Xinjiang, which was a big contrast with ours which found no evidence of such activities," Liu said. "That was the problem.''
But the second version of the report came to a different conclusion, which Liu did not agree with.
Edited by Yao, the polished version took an opposite approach to normal research, first arriving at a conclusion then trying to find points to support the conclusion.
