As a critic of the UN, I welcome this strong statement by UN experts in defense of Hong Kong pro-democracy protesters. This is what UN rights chief @mbachelet should have said in her opening statement to the UNHRC on Monday, instead of—shamefully—mostly siding with brutal China. https://t.co/zghcGdD2Qo

Kowtowing to Beijing, UN human rights chief @mbachelet focuses her criticism on the Hong Kong pro-democracy protesters, opening her remarks with "My Office continues to engage in bilateral dialogue with the Government of China…" 🇺🇳🇨🇳https://t.co/QCjvAYJpjK pic.twitter.com/YmFrwSFgPk

In other words, in her opening #HRC42 address, UN human rights chief @mbachelet had the courage to deliver 5 key points about climate change (a target one can hit with impunity), but failed to mention the 5 key demands of Hong Kong democracy protesters (out of her fear of China). pic.twitter.com/pG565GOykq

.@wendyrsherman When I asked her UNHRC rep in 2013 for a resolution on China's violations of human rights, he literally laughed at me. Why should Merkel's many virtues justify German complicity with the crushing of Muslim Uighurs, Tibetans, Hong Kong & 1.3 billion other citizens? https://t.co/j71HCPTyGb
