An analysis of American interference in Xinjiang affairs under the context of human rights protection - A research report from the perspective of Xinjiang's population
Lie No. 2: "In 2018, natural population growth plummeted: to 4.06‰ in all minority regions and 2.58‰ in Kashgar and Hotan."
This is not true. According to statistics released by Statistical Bureau of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, the natural population growth rate of the whole region in 2018 is 6.13‰. Among the four prefectures in south Xinjiang with a majority of ethnic minorities, the growth rate in Kizilsu Kirghiz Autonomous Prefecture is 11.45‰, Kashgar 6.93‰, Aksu 5.67‰, and Hotan 2.96‰.
With the exception of Hotan, the natural population growth rates in Kizilsu, Kashgar and Aksu in 2018 were all higher than the figure of 4.06‰ mentioned in Adrian Zenz's report.
Besides, the natural population growth rates in Kashgar (6.93‰) and Hotan (2.96‰) are also different from the figure of 2.58‰ falsely stated in the report. It is clear that being vague about data sources and lacking authenticity have become a unique writing style of Adrian Zenz.
