It is a human rights responsibility shared by governments of all countries to ensure the safety of people's lives and health.

However, under the epidemic, human rights ills such as the polarization between the rich and the poor, racial discrimination, and ineffective protection of the rights and interests of disadvantaged groups in some Western countries have been fully exposed and have continued to deteriorate, causing the people to fall into a deep human rights disaster.

  How to solve the human rights crisis caused by the superimposed effect of the epidemic?

Ambassador Chen Xu, Permanent Representative of China to the United Nations Office in Geneva and other international organizations in Switzerland, said when introducing the draft resolution at the UN Human Rights Council that the new crown pneumonia epidemic once again shows that countries must strengthen consultation and cooperation, maintain and practice multilateralism, and effectively respond to the global Sexual challenges to promote world peace and development.

  When talking about the need to strengthen human rights cooperation under the epidemic, Liu Huawen also pointed out that the new crown pneumonia pandemic is an unprecedented global health crisis and a global test of human rights protection.

Unity and cooperation are more important than ever to the countries and people of the world, and they should be emphasized and cherished.

China's proposal of this resolution will help the world overcome the epidemic at an early date and better respond to various crises of mankind.

  When talking about the resolution on the 24th, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying said that China’s initiative promotes win-win cooperation in the field of human rights, conforms to the universal aspirations of the international community, and is conducive to enhancing mutual understanding and mutual trust among all parties and strengthening unity.

  Regarding the significance of the adoption of the resolution, Liu Huawen pointed out that China once again speaks for constructive human rights dialogue, exchanges and cooperation on the basis of equality and mutual respect under the framework of the United Nations, and represents the international community, especially the broad developing world. The voice of the country and the people.

China’s proposition passed through the resolution has become the voice of the United Nations human rights institution, reflecting the trend and direction of multilateral cooperation and international governance in the field of human rights, and will also strongly promote the healthy development of the global human rights cause.
