Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, September 24 (Reporter Wu Yue) In response to recent allegations by the US Secretary of State Pompeo about the human rights situation in China and other countries, the spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Relations Wang Wenbin said on the 24th that the United States must be self-aware and must first confront and correct its own problems. .
Wang Wenbin said in a regular press conference that day that the United States is used to acting as a “human rights teacher” and criticizing the human rights situation in other countries. But, in fact, the human rights situation in the United States itself is very bad. “I cannot breathe” “The fate of blacks is also fate”, everyone has heard and seen. The United Nations Human Rights Council passed a resolution not long ago, strongly condemning severe racial discrimination in the United States.
“The United States must be self-aware, and must first confront and correct its own problems,” he said.
Wang Wenbin said that the Chinese government attaches great importance to the promotion and protection of human rights, follows the human rights philosophy centered on people, successfully lifted 850 million poor people out of poverty, achieved the goal of reduction poverty out of the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development 10 years ahead of schedule and built the world’s largest scale. The educational system, the social security system, the medical system and the grassroots democratic system guarantee the freedom of expression and religious beliefs of citizens and the rights of ethnic minorities to participate in the management of state affairs in accordance with the law, and people’s rights are effectively protected. During China’s participation in the United Nations Human Rights Council’s third round of national human rights review, more than 120 countries fully affirmed China’s tremendous achievements in promoting and protecting human rights and appreciated the development and China’s progress for its important contributions to the cause of human rights in the world. A survey report published by the Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation at the Harvard Kennedy School of Government showed that the Chinese people’s satisfaction rate with the Chinese government exceeds 93%.
“No country in the world has a perfect human rights situation.” Wang Wenbin said that China is willing to conduct exchanges with other countries in the world on the basis of equality and mutual respect, and promote common progress in the cause of human rights in the world. “But we do not accept the ‘human rights teacher’, we oppose the practice of ‘double standards’, we oppose distorting the facts, spreading rumors and defamation, we oppose the use of human rights issues to interfere in internal affairs from other countries.
