Senior CPC Official Meets UN High Commissioner for Human Rights

Li Tieying, a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, met Monday with Mary Robinson, the United Nations high commissioner for human rights.

Li, also president of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, briefed Robinson on China's basic position on human rights and China's achievements in the area in recent years.

The two sides had an extensive exchange of views on the history of the human rights issue, the ways to promote human rights, and the international human rights documents.

They acknowledged that governments in the world have the responsibility to further promote and protect human rights in accordance with the principle of those documents.

The two sides agreed that academic institutions have made positive efforts for the cause of human rights in various countries and that the international community should provide more favorable conditions for them, especially those of the developing countries, to participate in international human rights activities.
