　　At 2:42 p.m. local time on the 6th, the No. 20 conference hall of the Palais des Nations, where the United Nations Office in Geneva is located, was full. Diplomats and media reporters from various countries were waiting for the result of a vote.

　　When the final voting results appeared on the big screen, there was warm applause from the venue, and envoys from some countries congratulated the Chinese representatives.

　　On the same day, the 51st session of the United Nations Human Rights Council voted on a draft decision on Xinjiang-related issues led by the United States.

Although the United States has carefully packaged the draft and worked together with some Western countries to exert pressure on other member states, the draft is still strongly opposed by most members of the Human Rights Council, especially the vast number of developing members. Western countries such as the United States The plot ended in failure.

　　The reporter saw at the scene that in order to attract more countries to vote for the draft, the representatives of the United States and some Western countries tried to package the draft as a neutral procedural issue without any political purpose, but this lie was soon frequently used by other countries. The representative to the United Nations Office at Geneva slammed it.

　　Cuban representative Juan Roman pointed out that this draft selectively targets China, and its essence is that Western powers use human rights as a tool to achieve their political goals.

In his speech, he asked in a dignified tone: These sponsors keep saying that they are concerned about Xinjiang issues. China has organized many side events during the Human Rights Council meeting to introduce the situation in Xinjiang. During the epidemic, we have also overcome difficulties to organize similar activities. Why have the representatives of these sponsoring countries never participated in these activities?

　　Venezuela's representative, Constante Rosales, said in his speech that the draft is an attempt by the United States and its Western allies to target China, "This is a dangerous practice deliberately adopted by hegemonic countries using human rights as a tool, and we condemn this We cannot be accomplices to China's hostile practices."

　　Pakistan's representative, Khalil Hashmi, said in his speech that certain countries "imposing their political intentions on the Human Rights Council in an à la carte manner would undermine the credibility of this important human rights institution".

　　Bolivia's representative, Maria Alvarez, pointed out that the essence of this draft is to try to focus on China, so as to attack China again and again in future meetings under the guise of human rights, which is "using the so-called procedural issues to achieve one's own geopolitical situation". political purpose".

　　The representative of Eritrea, Adem Idris, said in his speech that just from the title of the draft, we can see the political intentions of the sponsors that cannot be hidden.

　　Chen Xu, Permanent Representative of China to the United Nations Office at Geneva and other international organizations in Switzerland, said in his speech against the above-mentioned draft that day, the United States and other countries proposed this draft and packaged it as a "procedural issue", which is to make the so-called non-existent so-called "procedural issues". The inclusion of Xinjiang-related human rights issues on the agenda of the Human Rights Council "is essentially to use the United Nations human rights body to interfere in China's internal affairs and promote its political plan of 'using Xinjiang to control China'."

　　Chen Xu said that Xinjiang-related issues are not human rights issues at all, but issues of counter-terrorism, de-radicalization and anti-separatism.

After arduous efforts, Xinjiang has been free from violent terrorist incidents for more than five consecutive years, and the human rights of people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang have been protected to the greatest extent possible.

The practice of the United States and other countries ignoring the truth is a typical political manipulation, and it is also the biggest violation of the human rights of the people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang.

　　In particular, Chen Xu pointed out that so far, all country-specific resolutions of the Human Rights Council are aimed at developing countries.

The United States and other countries turn a blind eye to their own human rights abuses, but they are keen to point fingers at other countries.

　　The results of this vote fully demonstrate that fairness is in the hearts of the people.

The politicization and instrumentalization of human rights issues by some countries such as the United States is doomed to failure.
