2007 November 14, Nathan Light, “30th Anniversary of the Baren Revolution”, in The Journal of Asian Studies, volume 66, number 4, page 1154:In 1944, the East Turkistan Republic was again established by Kazakh and Uighur forces. They controlled the north-western Ghulja region from 1944 to 1949. However, the Republic was surrendered to the CCP in September 1949, when one of its political leaders, Burhan, pledged his allegiance to the CCP (Dillon 2010: 377). Shortly after, eight East Turkistani political leaders were to travel to Beijing to negotiate and finalize details over the territory’s position in China.
