After hearing the news of the nomination of the World Uyghur Congress, the Chinese embassy in the United States of America has criticised it. The embassy has stated that this organisation has relations with terrorist organisations. Nominating such an organisation for the Nobel Peace Prize is detrimental to world peace.
