The United States announced today at its daily State Department briefing that it will only participate in debates at the council when absolutely necessary and it feels compelled to do so by “matters of deep national interest.” The United States failed to take the floor today in a council discussion on Burma, indicating the broad scope of its withdrawal.美国今天宣布，在其每日国务院的简报，这将只参加辩论，在安理会在绝对必要时，它认为必须这样做“的问题深的国家利益” ，美国没有采取楼，今天在安理会讨论对缅甸，显示范围广泛，其撤回。 Although not a member of the Human Rights Council, the United States had participated as an observer at the council since its inception in 2006.虽然不是一个成员，人权理事会，美国曾作为观察员参加了在安理会自成立以来，在2006年。 “The US decision to walk away from the Human Rights Council is counter-productive and short-sighted,” said Juliette de Rivero, Geneva advocacy director at Human Rights Watch. “美国的决定，离开人权理事会是反效果和短视的，说： ”朱丽叶德里韦罗，日内瓦宣传主任在人权观察组织。 “Whatever the council’s problems, this decision is a victory for abusive states and a betrayal of those fighting for their rights worldwide.” “无论安理会的问题，这个决定是一个胜利，滥用国家和背叛那些争取他们的权利在全世界” 。 The council remains a critical institution for protecting human rights throughout the world, despite some substantial weaknesses, Human Rights Watch said.安理会仍然是一个关键的机构为保护世界各地的人权，尽管取得了一些实质性的弱点，人权观察组织说。 The council’s system of human rights monitors, for example, provides crucial reporting on abuses such as torture, violence against women and extrajudicial executions, and on countries with ongoing human rights crises, such as Burma, Somalia and Sudan.安理会的制度，人权监察员，举例来说，提供了重要报告的虐待，如酷刑，对妇女的暴力行为和法外处决，以及对国家与正在进行的人权危机，如缅甸，索马里和苏丹。 In its first two years, however, the Human Rights Council has failed to address more than 20 human rights situations that require its attention, eliminated human rights monitoring in places desperately in need of such scrutiny, and adopted a long stream of one-sided resolutions on Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories which failed to consider the roles and responsibilities of the Palestinian authorities and armed groups.在头两年，不过，人权理事会未能解决20多个人权的情况，要求其注意，消除人权监测的地方，迫切需要这样的审议，并通过了一项长期流的一个片面的决议以色列和被占领的巴勒斯坦领土，这没有考虑到的角色和职责，巴勒斯坦当局与武装团体的武装。 Given its failure to engage fully at the council, the United States was ill-placed to confront those problems.由于其未能充分参与在安理会，美国是虐待的位置，面对这些问题。 “Washington’s hands-off approach to the Human Rights Council undermined it from the start,” said de Rivero. “华盛顿的手中小康的做法，给人权理事会的破坏，它从一开始就表示， ”德里韦罗。 “It’s ironic that the US shares responsibility for the shortcomings it’s now using to justify further distancing itself from the council.” The US decision was also ill-conceived, Human Rights Watch said, given the absence of viable alternatives to the council. “这是讽刺意味的是，美国股市的责任的缺点，它的现在使用的理由进一步疏远本身从会” ，美国还决定构思欠佳，人权观察组织说，由于没有可行的替代办法向立法会。 Human Rights Watch also questioned the timing of the US decision.人权观察组织也质疑的时机对美国的决定。 On May 21, the General Assembly held elections for membership of the Human Rights Council. 5月21日，大会举行了选举的成员组成的人权理事会。 In those elections, following a campaign by human rights defenders in Sri Lanka and worldwide, Sri Lanka’s bid for a seat was defeated.在这些选举中，以下的运动是由人权捍卫者在斯里兰卡和世界各地，斯里兰卡的出价为一个席位被击败。 Sri Lanka has a track record of enforced disappearances and torture.斯里兰卡已记录的强迫失踪和酷刑。 That defeat, and the defeat of Belarus in the previous year, demonstrated the potential for building a stronger council with a membership truly committed to fighting human rights abuses.认为失败，失败，白俄罗斯在过去一年，表现出的潜力，为建设强大的安理会成员真正致力于打击侵犯人权的行为。 Human Rights Watch noted that the human rights record of the US, particularly abuses in its counterterrorism efforts, undermined its credibility in defending human rights at the council.人权观察组织指出的人权纪录，美国，尤其是滥用其在反恐的努力，削弱了其公信力在维护人权，在安理会。 The US failed to cooperate with human rights experts from the council who sought to investigate its Guantanamo Bay detention facility.美国未能配合人权委员会的专家谁试图探讨其关塔那摩湾的拘留设施。 Despite those concerns, states with a record of supporting human rights at the council stressed that having the US at the table was very important to building a stronger, more effective Human Rights Council.尽管有这些关切，国家的纪录，支持人权在安理会强调指出，鉴于美国在餐桌上是非常重要的建设一个更强大，更有效的人权理事会。 In March 2006, the United States was one of only four states that voted against the UN General Assembly Resolution establishing the new Human Rights Council.在2006年3月，美国是一个只有四个国家表示反对联合国大会决议，设立新的人权理事会。 That year, and in two subsequent elections of members to the council, the United States did not seek a seat on the body.这一年，并在2以后的选举委员向安理会，美国没有寻求一个席位对身体的。 “Instead of ceding the field to those who want to shield abusers from scrutiny, the US should have redoubled its efforts to make the council work as it should,” de Rivero said. “ ，而不是割让领域的那些谁不想盾牌滥用，从审议过程中，美国应该加倍努力，以使安理会的工作，因为它应该” ，德里韦罗说。 One Response to “US Walks Away from UN Human Rights Council” 1回应“ ，美国各界人士远离联合国人权理事会”
