Beijing displays its human rights diplomacy
Article Abstract:
China's poor human rights record continues to be the subject of international criticism, reflecting on its foreign relations and national security. The inaugural session of the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva on June 21, 2006, provided an opportunity for China to highlight the differing interpretations of human rights in Beijing and Washington, with an aim to eliminate its negative image on human rights issues in the international, particularly the US perspective.
