The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) on Dec. 25 replaced the far-western Xinjiang region’s Party chief, according to state news agency Xinhua.
Chen Quanguo, who last year was slapped with U.S. sanctions for overseeing the mass detention and surveillance against Uyghurs in Xinjiang, will assume another role, Xinhua reported, without offering further details.
Ma Xingrui, the governor of southern Guangdong Province, has been appointed as the new Party chief of Xinjiang, according to the report.
