According to CCTV News on the 21st, the representative of China spoke at the interactive dialogue with the working group on arbitrary detention at the 51st session of the United Nations Human Rights Council on the 19th local time, strongly condemning the long-standing arbitrary detention problem in the United States.
Chinese representatives said that in 2021, more than 1.7 million immigrants were detained in the United States, and up to 80% were detained in private detention facilities, including 45,000 children. The conditions of private detention facilities are harsh, and the physical and mental health of detainees have been greatly damaged, and human rights violations have occurred frequently. Nearly 5,000 children are held in the Brisburg shelter site alone, living in a crowded and bad environment like a "livestock paddock" that causes serious physical and mental trauma.
20 years, the United States has arbitrarily detained some people in Guantanamo Prison without trial. In January this year, the Special Mechanism Expert Group issued a statement saying that Guantanamo Prison is "a stain on the US government's commitment to the rule of law" and urged the United States to end the "ugly page of wanton violations of human rights." China urges the US to face up to its own human rights issues, stop human rights violations such as arbitrary detention of difficult immigrants, and provide relief and compensation to victims.
