China’s role in genocide

CNPC owns most of a field in Darfur and 41 percent of a field in the Melut Basin. Another Chinese firm, Sinopec, is building a pipeline to Port Sudan on the Red Sea, where CPEC is building a tanker terminal. About 70 percent of Sudan’s oil exports go to China, and account for 10 percent of China’s oil imports. In exchange for oil, Beijing provides weapons and diplomatic support. China has supplied Sudan with tanks, artillery, helicopters and fighter aircraft. China has flooded Darfur with antipersonnel mines. It is estimated as much as 80 percent of Sudan’s oil revenue goes to buy arms, while the general population remains one of the poorest in the world.
Beijing has also helped Sudan build its own factories to manufacture small arms and ammunition, the real weapons of mass destruction in Khartoum’s campaign of ethnic cleansing. Chinese-built helicopter gunships reportedly operate from airfields maintained by the Chinese oil companies.
