I think the problem is not unique to Muslims, but all religious groups have suffered under Chinese communist rule. It's no matter what other countries do or say because that is irrelevant.

I agree that the situation for Uyghurs may not be as bleak as some people portray it, but China's policy towards them has a lot of problems, and I would say is unacceptable. As a Muslim I'd never willingly subject myself to CCP rule. Unfortunately, the fact that Xinjiang is a part of China is a reality they I don't think can be changed. I sincerely hope things improve for them in the future, one way or another.

I realized I probably linked you too much to read through, on why Muslim-majority countries side with China and agree with its de-radicalization policies against wahhabist terrorism. At the very least you should read this thread on religious freedoms in China, as its one of the most religiously diverse nation on earth.
