US Deserves Ouster from UNHRC: Macao NewspaperThe US deserves its ouster from the United Nations Human Right Commission (UNHRC), the Macao newspaper, Ta Chong Pao, said in a commentary Tuesday.It noted that the voting off the UNHRC gives a good lesson to the US which has been pursuing for a long time hegemony and grossly interfering in other countries' internal affairs. The newspaper noted that, it is a great satire that the US, which postes itself as the "world human rights police", was excluded from the UNHRC. This fully demonstrates that most countries, especially the developing countries, are indignant at the fact that the US has been pursuing for a ong time hegemonism on the human rights issue and grossly interfering in other countries' internal affairs under the signboard of human rights. The failure of the US is a penalty meted out by justice and international laws to the superpower, the newspaper said. According to the commentary, three factors resulted in the US' failure. Firstly, the US government issues a human rights report annually to wantonly condemn many countries for their human rights conditions. Secondly, the Bush administration's decision to withdraw from the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty and the Kyoto Pact and its announcement of the establishment of the NMD have also encountered extensive condemnation from the international community. Thirdly, for a long time the United States has deliberately defaulted its UN membership dues as a chip to control and manipulate the United Nations, the newspaper noted. It pointed out that the US' ouster from the UNHRC is a significant historical event and serves as a good lesson to the White House policymakers. |
