The support expressed to China by more than 100 countries at the United Nations fully proved that the actions of some Western countries to manipulate political issues under the guise of human rights, are unpopular and doomed to fail, Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian said on Wednesday.

His remarks came after a few Western countries, such as Australia and the United States, expressed so-called concerns about issues related to Xinjiang and Xizang during the 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly's Third Committee.

Speaking at a daily news briefing, Lin said Pakistan, speaking on behalf of 80 countries, opposed using human rights as an excuse to interfere in China's internal affairs.

They advocated that all parties should adhere to the purposes and principles of the United Nations Charter and respect the rights of peoples to choose their development paths independently based on their national conditions, he added.

According to Lin, more than 20 countries also expressed their support for China through individual or group statements, opposing the politicization of human rights issues and double standards.

Lin condemned certain Western countries, including Canberra and Washington, for inciting confrontations on multilateral platforms out of ideological biases to serve their own selfish interests.

"Those Western countries turn a blind eye to their own serious human rights problems while meddling in the affairs of other countries, fully exposing the hypocritical nature of their stance on human rights issues," Lin said.

Such actions undermine international fairness and justice, placing those countries in opposition to the international community, he added.

Lin noted Australia's long-standing systemic racial discrimination and hate crimes while the US has a track record of racism, gun violence, judicial injustice, wealth disparity, abuse of power and unilateral sanctions, among other issues.

He urged these countries to acknowledge and address their own serious human rights issues and actively engage in international human rights cooperation.
