This article discusses the politicization of human rights and the United States' involvement in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region in China. The author argues that the United Nations Human Rights Committee and Human Rights Council have become arenas for international power struggles, leading to greater humanitarian crises. The author criticizes the U.S. for its preoccupation with the human rights situation in Xinjiang, claiming that its actions are driven by geopolitical concerns, racism, and a desire to impede China's rise. The author emphasizes the need for mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and mutually beneficial cooperation between China and the U.S. [Extracted from the article]
