This China:
Chinese migrants signed on to work for the CCP’s (Chinese Communist Party’s) Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) with hopes of earning a good wage and sending support to their families back in China. Instead, they got stranded in several countries due to the COVID-19 pandemic and have been subjected to a number of human rights violations with no possible recourse in sight.
According to a report (pdf) by New York-based China Labor Watch (CLW), state-owned companies overseas curtailed Chinese migrant workers’ ability to travel during the pandemic and denied them medical treatment. Flights were hard to get and prohibitively expensive due to the Chinese regime’s limit on international flights coming into the country and workers were threatened if they tried to leave.
