The Chinese permanent representative to Geneva-based UN Office and other international organizations made public a stand of his country against the bid for hegemony and the politicization of the human rights issue at a session of the UN Human Rights Council on September 18.

It is a unilateral and hegemony-seeking act to randomly take unilateral coercive measures against developing countries and use armed forces against sovereign states or threaten them with force of arms without reason, he asserted, branding it as a flagrant violation of the basic objectives and principles of the UN Charter.

China vehemently rejects the acts of interfering in the internal affairs of other countries on the pretext of human rights, politicizing them and abusing them as tools, he stressed.

He called on all nations to jointly uphold the basic objectives and principles of the UN Charter and substantially protect human rights.
