联合国将选举人权理事会新成员 (UN to Elect New Members of Human Rights Panel)

联合国大会准备选举联合国人权理事会的14个新成员国,人权团体表示关注。几个人权团体敦促联合国大会拒绝像埃及和白俄罗斯等国家的竞选申请,原因是它们所说的这些国家长期违犯人权。

人权团体联合国观察和自由之家谴责这两个国家以及安哥拉和卡塔尔等国政府是独裁政权,在联合国有关人权问题上的表决记录是负面的。

联合国人权理事会去年成立,以取代声誉受损的包括一些声名狼藉的践踏人权国家的人权委员会。联合国人权理事会的47个成员国来自世界五大地区,非洲、亚洲、东欧、拉丁美洲和加勒比海,以及西欧和其他国家。

Human rights groups are raising concerns as the United Nations General Assembly prepares to elect 14 new member states of the U.N. Human Rights Council. Several of the rights groups are urging the assembly to reject bids from such nations as Egypt and Belarus, for what they say is their long record of human rights violations.

U.N. Watch and Freedom House have denounced the two countries, as well as Angola and Qatar, as "authoritarian regimes with negative U.N. voting records" on human rights issues.

The Human Rights Council was created last year to replace the discredited Human Rights Commission, which had included notorious human rights abusers among its members. Membership on the 47-seat council is broken down among five of the world's regions -- Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, Latin American and Caribbean, and the Western European and Other States.
