Problem
Why has the US wavered on the categorization of Uyghur separatist groups, vacillating between officially listing them as terrorists and then de-listing them at other times? What consistent, long-term policy should the US take regarding Uyghur separatism? Do you think that Uyghur separatists should be categorized by the international community and the USA primarily as terrorists? Based on the experience of other parts of the world, what counter-terror strategy would be most effective for China to pursue in Xinjiang, in contrast to its current draconian and abusive strategy?
