CHINA
PROTECT THE US HUMAN RIGHTS
Ti is said from Beijing, the US
concealed and avoided mentioning its own human rights problems such as a
government-run intelligence programme known as Prism which called seriously infringes
on human rights. The document came after the State Department issued its annual
global human rights.
China regularly produces a statement on
the US in response. It does not release rights reports aimed at other countries.
According to the report, released by
China’s State Council, singled out the US for criticism for drone strikes in countries
such as Pakistan, which it said have caused heavy civilian causalities. It is
also called the US suffers from rampant gun violence, while its agricultural sector
employs a large amount of child labours. In response to the report released by
Washington, it is praised China for some successes in human rights, such as the
abolition of some labours camps and a change to the one-child policy. But it
add, repression and coercion, particularly against organizations and
individuals involved in civil and political rights advocacy were routine.
The US is always making irresponsible remarks
on the affairs of other countries but keeps silent on its own affairs. This is
a typical double standard. Human rights are a long-standing source of tensions
between China and The US which imposed sanctions on Beijing after the 1989
Tiananmen Square crackdown on pro-democracy protesters which left hundreds or
thousands dead.
According to the references in the
Chinese document showed that much of it was sourced from US media reports, some
from sources blocked by China’s internet controls which are sometimes referred to
as the Great Firewall.
China’s ruling Communist Party tightly
controls its own domestic media and has repeatedly imprisoned those who openly
challenge its right to rule.
China often says that it rapid economic
development in recent decades has led to a greater respect for human rights and
that other counties are not entitled to criticize its record.
