Iipurees zetamatati 'zeTaliyane' ezithengiswa kwiivenkile ezinkulu zase-UK zibonakala zineetumato ezikhuliswe kwaye zicholwe eTshayina kusetyenziswa umsebenzi onyanzelweyo, ngokwengxelo yeBBC.
Uvavanyo olugunyaziswe yi-BBC World Service lufumanise ukuba, zizonke, iimveliso ezili-17, uninzi lwazo ezithengiswa e-UK kunye nabathengisi baseJamani, kusenokwenzeka ukuba zineetumato zaseTshayina.
Abanye bane 'Italian' emagameni abo anje ngeTesco's 'Italian Tomato Purée,' ngelixa abanye benayo 'isiTaliyane' kwinkcazo yabo, njengokugxininiswa okuphindwe kabini kwe-Asda ethi iqulethe 'iitumato ezikhulileyo zase-Italiya' kunye ne'Waitrose's 'Essential Tomato Purée,' ezichaza 'njenge-Italian tomato puree'.
Iivenkile ezinkulu ezineemveliso zeBBC World Service ezivavanyiweyo ziyaphikisana nezi ziphumo.
E-China, uninzi lweetumato zivela kwingingqi ye-Xinjiang, apho imveliso yazo idityaniswe nomsebenzi onyanzelweyo ngu-Uyghur kunye namanye ama-Muslim amancinci.
IZizwe eziManyeneyo (i-UN) zityhola ilizwe laseTshayina lokungcungcuthekiswa kunye nokuxhatshazwa kwaba bancinci, ababonwa yi-China njengomngcipheko wokhuseleko. Ilizwe laseChina liyaphika ukuba linyanzelisa abantu ukuba basebenze kwishishini letumata kwaye lithi amalungelo abasebenzi balo akhuselwe ngumthetho. Ngokutsho kwe-BBC, i-China ithi ingxelo ye-UN isekelwe 'kwi-disinformation kunye nobuxoki'.
I-China ivelisa malunga nesinye kwisithathu seetumato zehlabathi, kunye nommandla osemntla-ntshona we-Xinjiang ubonwa njengemozulu efanelekileyo yokulima isityalo. Nangona kunjalo, i-Xinjiang ikwajongene nokuphononongwa kwihlabathi jikelele ngenxa yeengxelo zokuxhatshazwa kwamalungelo abantu, kubandakanya nokuvalelwa kwabantu abaninzi ukusukela ngo-2017.
Ngokutsho kwemibutho yamalungelo oluntu, ngaphezu kwesigidi sama-Uyghur baye bavalelwa kwinto iTshayina ekuchaza 'njengeenkampu zokufundiswa kwakhona.' Kuye kwavela izityholo ezibonisa ukuba amanye amabanjwa anyanzeliswa ukusebenza, kuquka namasimi etumata eXinjiang.
I-BBC isandula ukuthetha nabantu abali-14 abathe banamava okanye babona umsebenzi onyanzelwayo kwimveliso yeetumato kule ngingqi kule minyaka ili-16 idlulileyo. Owayesakuba libanjwa, ethetha ngegama elingengowakho, wathi abasebenzi kufuneka bahlangabezane nemilinganiselo yemihla ngemihla ukuya kuthi ga kwi-650kg, kunye nesohlwayo kwabo basilelayo.
I-BBC ithe: "Kunzima ukuqinisekisa ezi akhawunti, kodwa ziyahambelana, kwaye zifana nobungqina kwingxelo ye-UN ka-2022, eyabika ngentuthumbo kunye nokusebenza ngenkani kumaziko ogcino eXinjiang".
Ngokudibanisa idatha yokuthumela ngenqanawa evela kwihlabathi liphela, i-BBC yafumanisa ukuba uninzi lweetumato ze-Xinjiang zithuthwa ukuya eYurophu- ngololiwe ukudlula eKazakhstan, eAzerbaijan ukuya eGeorgia, ukusuka apho zithunyelwa khona ukuya e-Italiya.
Abanye abathengisi, abanjengoTesco kunye noRewe, baphendule ngokumisa ukubonelela okanye ukuhoxiswa kweemveliso, ngelixa abanye, kuquka u-Waitrose, uMorrisons, kunye no-Edeka, baphikisana neziphumo kwaye baqhuba iimvavanyo zabo, eziphikisana namabango. U-Lidl uqinisekisile ukusebenzisa iitumato zaseTshayina kwimveliso ethengiswe ngokufutshane eJamani ngo-2023 ngenxa yemicimbi yokubonelela.
Imibuzo iye yaphakanyiswa malunga nenkqubo yokufumana u-Antonio Petti, inkampani enkulu yase-Italiya yokwenza itumato. Iirekhodi zokuthumela ngenqanawe zibonisa ukuba inkampani ifumene ngaphezulu kwe-36 yezigidi zeekhilogram zentlama yetumato kwi-Xinjiang Guannong kunye ne-subsidiaries yayo phakathi kuka-2020 kunye no-2023. I-Xinjiang Guannong ngumthengisi omkhulu e-China, ovelisa inxalenye ebalulekileyo yeetumato zehlabathi.
Ngo-2021, enye yeefektri zeqela lakwaPetti yagqogqwa ngamapolisa omkhosi wase-Italiya ngokurhanelwa ngobuqhetseba-kwaxelwa ngumshicileli wase-Italiya ukuba amaTshayina kunye nezinye iitumato zakwamanye amazwe zagqithiswa njengeTaliyane. Emva konyaka kolo gqogqo, ityala lachotshelwa ngaphandle kwenkundla.
Ngexesha lokundwendwela ngokufihlakeleyo kumzi-mveliso wasePetti, intatheli yeBBC yathatha umfanekiso obonisa imigqomo ebhalwe ukuba iqulethe intlama yetumata evela eXinjiang Guannong yango-Agasti ka-2023. UPetti wakhanyela ukuthenga okutsha nje kwaseXinjiang Guannong, esithi iodolo yakhe yokugqibela ibingo-2020. Iimveliso zetamatati zaseTshayina kunye nokuphucula ukujongwa kwekhonkco lokubonelela.
Le nkampani "ayizange isebenze ngenkani," isithethi sikaPetti sixelele iBBC. Nangona kunjalo, uphando lufumene ukuba i-Bazhou Red Fruit yabelana ngenombolo yefowuni kunye ne-Xinjiang Guannong, kunye nobunye ubungqina, kuquka uhlalutyo lwedatha yokuthumela, ebonisa ukuba i-Bazhou yinkampani yayo yegobolondo.
Isithethi sikaPetti songeze sathi: “Kwixesha elizayo asizukungenisa iimveliso zetumato ezivela eTshayina kwaye siza kuphucula ukujonga kwethu ababoneleli ngeenkonzo ukuze siqinisekise ukuthotyelwa kwamalungelo abantu nabasebenzi”.
I-US yazise umthetho ongqongqo wokuvala zonke izinto ezithunyelwa ngaphandle kwe-Xinjiang, ngelixa iYurophu kunye ne-UK zithathe indlela ethambileyo, evumela iinkampani ukuba zizilawule ngokwazo ukuqinisekisa ukuba umsebenzi onyanzelwayo awusetyenziswa kumakhonkco okubonelela.
Iziphumo zigxininisa ukubaluleka kweenkqubo zokulandelela umkhondo kunye nemingeni yokugcina izinto elubala kumakhonkco obonelelo ngehlabathi. Njengoko i-EU yazisa imimiselo engqongqo malunga nokunyanzeliswa komsebenzi kumakhonkco obonelelo, ukuxhomekeka kwe-UK kulawulo lobuqu kunokujongana nokuphononongwa okwandisiweyo.
