Summary: In an answer to a parliamentary question tabled in the Senate (Question 18437), the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs stated that it was “particularly concerned” by elements pointing to forced labour practices and control of minorities in Tibet comparable to those observed in Xinjiang. France said it regularly raises its concerns about human rights in the Tibet Autonomous Region at high-level bilateral meetings and in multilateral fora, including at the United Nations Human Rights Council and during China’s Universal Periodic Review. It also called on French companies to exercise vigilance in their supply chains under the 2017 duty of vigilance law and reiterated its call for the resumption of dialogue between the envoys of the Dalai Lama and the Chinese authorities.
