BEIJING, Jan. 8 (Xinhua) — China is willing to work with the international community to uphold the authority of international law, jointly promote multilateralism, and ensure world peace and stability, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said Thursday.
As reported, United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk pointed out that the US military operation in Venezuela undermines the fundamental principle of international law, and experts of the Human Rights Council issued a joint statement strongly condemning the actions of the United States.
At a regular departmental press conference, the Chinese diplomat stated that China consistently opposes the politicization of human rights issues and their use as a tool, rejects the selective application of international law, and opposes the use of human rights as a pretext for interference in the internal affairs of other countries.
Mao Ning said China firmly supports Venezuela in safeguarding its sovereignty, security and legitimate rights and interests, and firmly supports all countries in choosing their own development paths in the field of human rights in accordance with their national conditions.
