The United States is turning against the values and principles on which the United Nations is based
Teleghraph , Maat : The United States of America has surprised the international legal community by withdrawing from the Human Rights Council, according to a statement issued on the evening of Tuesday, June 19, 2018. By the Human Rights Council, in a series of United States resolutions that are clashing with the United Nations system and are biased towards massive violations of the rights By States allied to the United States, as well as its practice of moral pressure on the world by reducing its financial contribution to certain UN bodies that play a pivotal role in assisting refugees.
Maat for Peace, Development and Human Rights affirms its rejection of all American practices that do not conform to the most basic human rights standards, do not serve world peace in any way, and are rooted in the logic of force and bullying. They point to the following:
It has become clear to all that the focus of American foreign policy has been to protect and fortify Israel against the ongoing human rights criticisms of its record in the field of human rights, and even supported the Israeli occupying Power’s violation of all United Nations resolutions, including those that were agreed In previous years, the United States has been more committed to ethical standards, and confirms the relationship of the US decision the arrogant attitude of the Human Rights Council of Israel and its crimes confirmed by the United States delegate to the United Nations that it could not be accepted The continuing discrimination against Israel in the Human Rights Council and its unjustified rejection of Israel’s continued subjection to scrutiny and control in its dealings with the Palestinians.
Maat for Peace, development and human rights stands in solidarity with all the sound and rational United States voices that rejected US pressure on the Council the decision to withdraw, including statements made by the President of the Human Rights Council at the beginning of the 38th session of the Council on 20 June 2018, which considered the US withdrawal Limit the challenges facing human rights. He stressed that the Council was the only intergovernmental body that responded to human rights issues and situations throughout the world with the active participation of civil society. As well as the European Union’s statement that the US decision would contribute to the international role of the United States.
The administration of current US President Donald Trump is leading systematic efforts to violate fundamental human rights and is taking many decisions that will have a negative impact on efforts to protect human rights in the world.
Maat demands that the Human Rights Council, at its current session No. 38, demands that the American pressure not be met and that decisions and actions be taken in sufficient measure to stop the continuing Israeli and United States violations against defenseless Palestinians and to work to operationalize its previous resolutions that were compatible with Human rights standards on the Palestinian question and the just and legitimate demands of the Palestinian people, and the foundation demands that the Human Rights Council be brought to the General Assembly of the United Nations a comprehensive report on American and Israeli practices that seek to hijack the UN resolution in a way that contradicts Radically with all the values and principles on which the United Nations system was built.
Maat wonders about the role of the major American human rights organizations and demands that she carry out an awareness and pressure campaign inside the US to make the citizens of the United States aware of the crimes committed by their government, expose their aggression against the people and use them to the resources of the American people to protect a fanatic entity that kills The right holders in cold blood.
