China’s envoy to the United Nations in Geneva stated on Tuesday that the U.S. Army and the forces of other coalition partners should be held accountable for human rights violations they committed in Afghanistan.
“The USA, the United Kingdom, Australia and other countries must be held accountable for the violation of human rights committed by their military in Afghanistan and the evolution of this current session should cover this issue,” China’s envoy Chen Xu said at a session of the Human Rights Council on Afghanistan.
“Under the banner of democracy and human rights the US and other countries carry out military interventions in other sovereign states and impose their own model on countries with vastly different history and culture,” he said, claiming this has brought “great suffering”.
