cuba made a joint statement on behalf of nearly 80 countries, emphasizing that the affairs of xinjiang, hong kong and tibet are china's internal affairs, opposing the politicization of human rights issues and double standards, and opposing interference in the internal affairs of other countries under the pretext of human rights. it called on all parties to abide by the purposes and principles of the un charter, follow the principles of universality, impartiality, objectivity and non-selectivity, and respect the right of people of all countries to independently choose their own development path in accordance with their national conditions.

uganda, on behalf of the non-aligned movement, venezuela, on behalf of the group of friends of the united nations charter, and gambia, on behalf of the african group, spoke in support of china's position. hundreds of countries once again voiced their just support for china at the united nations, which fully demonstrated that the actions of a few western countries such as the united states to politicize human rights issues are unpopular in the international community and are doomed to fail.
china urges the united states to deeply reflect on and effectively resolve its own serious human rights issues such as racism, gun violence, social injustice, and violation of the rights of refugees and immigrants, effectively protect the human rights of its own citizens, stop interfering in other countries' internal affairs, and constructively participate in international human rights cooperation.
