Security forces from China and two Central Asian neighbors practiced hunting down violent separatists in a counterterrorism drill along a border area where ethnic Muslim rebels have staged attacks against Beijing's rule, the government said Saturday.


Friday's one-day exercise involved forces from Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan as well as China and took place along their borders in the western Chinese region of Xinjiang, the government and media reports said.


The scenario called on the three countries to coordinate a manhunt for anti-China separatists who had set up a training camp on the Chinese side of the border, the China News Service said. Flushed out, the rebels hijacked a tourist bus that television footage showed black-suited tactical units storming, shattering the windows to get inside.

Hardly far-fetched, the drill contained situations Chinese security forces have previously encountered in trying to quash the sporadically violent, decades-long rebellion by largely Muslim Uighurs seeking independence for Xinjiang, or what they call East Turkestan.


Those "'East Turkestan' terror forces ... have never stopped threatening us, have ceaselessly plotted violent terrorist attacks, have formed terrorist cells inside the country and are waiting for the opportunity to launch terror attacks," the Ministry of Public Security said in a statement posted on its website about Friday's exercise.


The authoritarian government in Beijing has tried over the past decade to link its struggle against Xinjiang separatism to the wider U.S.-led campaign against militant Islamic terrorism.


Following Osama bin Laden's killing by U.S. commandos, Beijing renewed its appeals for international cooperation this past week, though Chinese foreign policy experts have voiced concern that with the terror leader gone, the United States will devote more efforts to containing China's growing ambitions.


Some among the more radical Uighurs trained in Taliban camps in Afghanistan prior to the U.S. invasion in 2001 and since then moved across the border in Pakistan.


The latest drill was the second in five years conducted in Xinjiang under the auspices of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, a grouping that is comprised of four Central Asian neighbors as well as Russia and China. Beijing has used to project its influence into a strategic, volatile region rich in oil and gas.

China Seeks Global Help in Fighting Uighur Separatists


China is calling for the international community to help fight what it says is its own homegrown terrorist problem in mostly Muslim Xinjiang.  The Chinese government accuses the region’s Uighur minority population of seeking independence through violence.


Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu was asked if the death of Osama bin Laden would have any effect on China’s counterterrorism policies.


She did not give a direct answer, but indicated that China believes it suffers too.
