HUMBLE YOURSELF, BEFORE PASSING JUDGMENT
China's achievements in human rights development are widely recognized and not to be denied by lies and deception, Zhang said.
He mentioned China's adoption of effective measures in combating terrorism and promoting economic development, which has been supported by Chinese people and stood the test of time and history.
On the other hand, Zhang criticized the United States for its own human rights record, saying the United States should better take a good look at itself in the mirror before making accusations against others.
Pointing to the over 200,000 American lives lost in the COVID-19 pandemic, he advised the U.S. government need to treat the sick and save lives, not to spread "political virus" and to stir up troubles.
He also called for attention to the existing systematic racial discrimination in the United States, the belligerent nature of the country and the frequent, crude political decisions unilaterally made by the country to evade its human rights obligations.
Germany, the United Kingdom and some other countries, having been practicing selective blindness and double-standards, should put away arrogance and prejudice, and pull back from the brink, said Zhang.
