A question recently surfaced on Threads: “Why won’t China allow the Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) to inspect Xinjiang cotton for potential human rights violations?”
The core issue isn’t about “allowing” or “not allowing” but rather involves international politics and sovereignty.
🌍 The BCI’s Role
The BCI claims to promote sustainable cotton farming globally. However, its actions align closely with U.S. political interests, raising questions about its neutrality.
China’s cautious stance is necessary to protect its sovereignty and the livelihoods of Xinjiang’s cotton farmers.
