The Tribunal has always made it clear that it would not have been formed if there was a possibility of the allegations being considered at a formal international court.<\/p>\n<p>To date the PRC cannot be dealt with over allegations of genocide because it joined the Convention on terms, as allowed, that allow it to avoid being dealt with at the ICJ for genocide. It can easily and immediately change its position and withdraw those terms. In which event it would be open to another bold country to take it to the ICJ for genocide.<\/p>\n<p>The Uyghur Tribunal\u2019s primary concern is the impact on the wellbeing of the witnesses who gave evidence at the recent Tribunal Hearings in London and to the relatives and a neighbour of those witnesses who appeared at the PRC conference.<\/p>\n<p>The Tribunal notes the statements made by the relatives and a neighbour and the Tribunal extends an invitation to them to attend the Tribunal\u2019s next Hearings in September of this year. We would invite the PRC to confirm that they are at liberty to travel to the UK if they so wished.<\/p>\n<p>The Tribunal will continue with its work in seeking the truth in an impartial manner.
