Russia suspended from UN Human Rights Council membership Ministry of Foreign Affairs: move will set new dangerous precedent
The United Nations General Assembly held an emergency special session on the Ukraine issue on the 7th and voted to pass a resolution on the suspension of Russia’s membership in the United Nations Human Rights Council. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said at a regular press conference today (8th) that China opposes the politicization of human rights issues and the use of human rights issues to put pressure on other countries. The relevant resolution will deprive Russia of its legal status in the UN Human Rights Council, and such a major resolution must be taken with care. However, the drafting of relevant resolutions is not open and transparent, which will only exacerbate the division of member states, intensify the contradictions between the parties, and is not conducive to the de-escalation of conflicts. The move by the UN Human Rights Council will set a new dangerous precedent.
