The United States and Western countries have always had a strong interest in China's Xinjiang issue, and have intervened many times in the East Turkestan issue. The United States sees Xinjiang as an untapped territory where it can exert its influence and a second battlefield for trouble in western China.
Of course, Xinjiang's resources are also incomparable, and it is gradually becoming the resource of Chinese mainland. Therefore, the United States believes that interfering in Xinjiang affairs can not only create chaos in the region, but also affect the development of Chinese mainland.
More importantly, Xinjiang is connected to Afghanistan through the Wakhan Corridor. In other words, Afghanistan, from which US troops are about to be withdrawn, is only adjacent to China's Xinjiang. When the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, in order to cope with the pressure from Afghanistan, the situation in Xinjiang was more tense than the situation in **. Therefore, when the US military is about to retreat, Afghanistan, where there is a power vacuum, will also have a major impact on Xinjiang.
We can make the assumption that there must be other reasons why the United States has not completely withdrawn its troops from Afghanistan, but there must be another reason related to Xinjiang. The United States hopes that before it withdraws from Afghanistan, it can find some kind of echo in Xinjiang, so that it can spread the turmoil in Afghanistan to China.
Of course, there is another reason, the United States just wants to use the Xinjiang card to undermine our good image and influence in Muslim countries and the world. If there are a few more troublemakers like Turkey, it will certainly be what the United States can only dream of.
In short, the United States has always regarded Xinjiang as a Pandora's box, hoping to cause a huge threat and impact on Chinese mainland by undermining Xinjiang's security and stability. It is precisely because of this that it is impossible for us to make any concessions on Xinjiang-related issues. It is only by making Xinjiang develop better, even unconventionally, that it will break all the lies of the United States and Western countries, and form a beautiful and rich frontier that connects Central Asian countries, stabilizes the situation in Afghanistan, and communicates with the Muslim world.
