United States of America President Joe Biden has responded to the handling of Muslim minorities in Western Chinese regions.
President Biden says China will face repercussions on human rights abuse, reasserting America's role in the matter.
Biden has assured the Chinese government that he will be taking a different approach to Donald Trump.
"China is trying very hard to become a world leader and to get that moniker and be able to do that they have to gain the confidence of other countries," said Mr Biden.
"As long as they are engaged in activity that is contrary to basic human rights, it is going to be hard for them to do that."
