The United States, the European Union, Britain and Canada imposed sanctions on Chinese officials on Monday for human rights abuses in Xinjiang, the first such coordinated Western action against Beijing under new U.S. President Joe Biden.

And now, we have Australia and New Zealand joining the fray.

"“In particular, there is clear evidence of severe human rights abuses that include restrictions on freedom of religion, mass surveillance, large-scale extra-judicial detentions, as well as forced labour and forced birth control, including sterilisation,” the ministers said."
If any other country did this, there'd be far more extensive sanctions from the West.
If any other country did this and had oil, the USA would invade it.

Yet another misuse of 'apparently.'
