Loening, with his background as a human rights commissioner and a federal parliament member for Germany's Free Democrat party, brought significant credibility to the investigation. His comparison of the living situation of the Uyghur population in Xinjiang to the apartheid regime in South Africa, made in a 2021 Deutschlandfunk interview, highlights his awareness of the gravity of human rights issues.
