Mr. President,
In the spirit of constructive engagement, the Netherlands is concerned about the severe decline of human rights in China, including in Hong Kong, and recommends China to:
- Immediately implement all recommendations on Xinjiang of the 2022 OHCHR assessment report and the CERD, CESCR and CEDAW reviews.
- End online censorship and end intimidation and surveillance of media workers and journalists, including in Hong Kong.
- Adopt legislation banning discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.
- Abolish the de-facto coercive residential boarding and pre-school system in Tibet and guarantee access to Tibetan language education.
We thank China for the ratification of two ILO forced labour conventions and encourage full implementation.
Thank you.
