A reporter asked: On September 26, at the 51st session of the United Nations Human Rights Council, Pakistan made a joint speech on behalf of nearly 70 countries, supporting China's position on issues related to Xinjiang, Hong Kong, and Tibet, and opposing the use of human rights as an excuse to interfere in China's internal affairs.
What is China's comment?
Wang Wenbin: On September 26, at the 51st session of the United Nations Human Rights Council, Pakistan made a joint speech on behalf of nearly 70 countries, pointing out that Xinjiang, Hong Kong, and Tibet affairs are China's internal affairs, and opposes the politicization of human rights issues and double standards. Interfering in China's internal affairs under the pretext of human rights, advocates that all parties abide by the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, respect the right of people of all countries to choose their own development paths according to their national conditions, and stress that the international community should adhere to multilateralism, strengthen solidarity and cooperation, and jointly address global challenges and promote World peace and development, promotion and protection of human rights.
More than 20 countries have supported China by speaking individually.
In recent years, nearly 100 countries have continuously voiced their just voices in the Human Rights Council, expressing their understanding and support for China's legitimate position in different ways.
The attempts of a few Western countries to attack and smear China through the so-called human rights issue have repeatedly gone bankrupt.
This clearly shows that people turn their backs.
The vast majority of members of the international community have long been aware of the fact that a few Western countries have committed double standards and political manipulation on human rights issues, and blatantly interfered in other countries' internal affairs by taking advantage of human rights issues.
In fact, a few Western countries such as the United States have serious human rights problems themselves, including gun violence violating the right to life, failing to fight the epidemic violating the right to health, human trafficking and forced labor violating labor rights, the separation of flesh and blood policies violating the human rights of immigrants, and systematic racial discrimination violating Asia The human rights of ethnic minorities, Africans, Muslims and other minorities, the genocide policy that continues to this day violates the human rights of indigenous people, overseas military operations and illegal unilateral sanctions violate the human rights of other countries, etc.
We urge these countries to stop pretending to be "human rights teachers", stop double standards and political manipulation, and pay off their blood debts and make up for their homework.
China's determination to safeguard national sovereignty, security and development interests is unswerving.
No matter how a few Western countries perform, they cannot stop the firm pace of the Chinese people's development and progress, and are doomed to fail.
