Rodong Sinmun Slams Arrogant Acts of U.S., World's Worst Human Rights Abuser

Pyongyang, May 2 (KCNA) -- A commentary of Rodong Sinmun Wednesday brands "Country Reports on Human Rights Practices for 2017" made public by the U.S. as a false document peppered with prejudice and fabrication. It is an illegal act in violation of the universally recognized principle of international law to say this or that about the human rights policies and human rights systems in other countries, an internal issue pertaining to the sovereignty of independent countries, and to admonish them to do this or that, the commentary says, and goes on: By making public "human rights report" every year, the U.S. seeks to always maintain its hegemonic position in human rights issue, place other countries in the dock and prevent its own hideous human rights situation from being questioned. Its aim is to justify and legitimize interference in the internal affairs of other countries. The U.S. trick by which it finds fault with other countries is a suicidal act of putting itself in human rights dock. The U.S. is the world's matchless barren land of human rights and tundra of democracy. It is illogical for this country to trumpet about human rights. The U.S. is resorting to all kinds of sleight by putting up the signboard of "defence of human rights" but with nothing can the deceptive and aggressive nature of their racket of "human rights" be concealed. It is quite natural for the international community to demand that the U.S. be taken to the dock of human rights court and called to task, while branding it as the kingpin of human rights abuses which has lost the qualifications to talk about human rights. The U.S. ill- famed as the world's worst human rights abuser should seriously repent of its human rights crimes, before admonishing other countries while going arrogant as to reel off "human rights" rhetoric. -0-
