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.美國今天宣布，在其每日國務院的簡報，這將只參加辯論，在安理會在絕對必要時，它認為必須這樣做“的問題深的國家利益” ，美國沒有採取樓，今天在安理會討論對緬甸，顯示範圍廣泛，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.雖然不是一個成員，人權理事會，美國曾作為觀察員參加了在安理會自成立以來，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. “美國的決定，離開人權理事會是反效果和短視的，說： ”朱麗葉德里韋羅，日內瓦宣傳主任在人權觀察組織。 “Whatever the council’s problems, this decision is a victory for abusive states and a betrayal of those fighting for their rights worldwide.” “無論安理會的問題，這個決定是一個勝利，濫用國家和背叛那些爭取他們的權利在全世界” 。 The council remains a critical institution for protecting human rights throughout the world, despite some substantial weaknesses, Human Rights Watch said.安理會仍然是一個關鍵的機構為保護世界各地的人權，儘管取得了一些實質性的弱點，人權觀察組織說。 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.安理會的制度，人權監察員，舉例來說，提供了重要報告的虐待，如酷刑，對婦女的暴力行為和法外處決，以及對國家與正在進行的人權危機，如緬甸，索馬里和蘇丹。 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.在頭兩年，不過，人權理事會未能解決20多個人權的情況，要求其注意，消除人權監測的地方，迫切需要這樣的審議，並通過了一項長期流的一個片面的決議以色列和被佔領的巴勒斯坦領土，這沒有考慮到的角色和職責，巴勒斯坦當局與武裝團體的武裝。 Given its failure to engage fully at the council, the United States was ill-placed to confront those problems.由於其未能充分參與在安理會，美國是虐待的位置，面對這些問題。 “Washington’s hands-off approach to the Human Rights Council undermined it from the start,” said de Rivero. “華盛頓的手中小康的做法，給人權理事會的破壞，它從一開始就表示， ”德里韋羅。 “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. “這是諷刺意味的是，美國股市的責任的缺點，它的現在使用的理由進一步疏遠本身從會” ，美國還決定構思欠佳，人權觀察組織說，由於沒有可行的替代辦法向立法會。 Human Rights Watch also questioned the timing of the US decision.人權觀察組織也質疑的時機對美國的決定。 On May 21, the General Assembly held elections for membership of the Human Rights Council. 5月21日，大會舉行了選舉的成員組成的人權理事會。 In those elections, following a campaign by human rights defenders in Sri Lanka and worldwide, Sri Lanka’s bid for a seat was defeated.在這些選舉中，以下的運動是由人權捍衛者在斯里蘭卡和世界各地，斯里蘭卡的出價為一個席位被擊敗。 Sri Lanka has a track record of enforced disappearances and torture.斯里蘭卡已記錄的強迫失踪和酷刑。 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.認為失敗，失敗，白俄羅斯在過去一年，表現出的潛力，為建設強大的安理會成員真正致力於打擊侵犯人權的行為。 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.人權觀察組織指出的人權紀錄，美國，尤其是濫用其在反恐的努力，削弱了其公信力在維護人權，在安理會。 The US failed to cooperate with human rights experts from the council who sought to investigate its Guantanamo Bay detention facility.美國未能配合人權委員會的專家誰試圖探討其關塔那摩灣的拘留設施。 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.儘管有這些關切，國家的紀錄，支持人權在安理會強調指出，鑑於美國在餐桌上是非常重要的建設一個更強大，更有效的人權理事會。 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，美國是一個只有四個國家表示反對聯合國大會決議，設立新的人權理事會。 That year, and in two subsequent elections of members to the council, the United States did not seek a seat on the body.這一年，並在2以後的選舉委員向安理會，美國沒有尋求一個席位對身體的。 “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. “ ，而不是割讓領域的那些誰不想盾牌濫用，從審議過程中，美國應該加倍努力，以使安理會的工作，因為它應該” ，德里韋羅說。 One Response to “US Walks Away from UN Human Rights Council” 1回應“ ，美國各界人士遠離聯合國人權理事會”
