JUST IN: U.S. Withdraws From United Nations Human Rights Body by donaldeke(m): 11:33pm On Jun 19, 2018
The United States of America has withdrawn from the United Nations Human Rights Council on Tuesday accusing it of a "chronic bias against Israel," a move that activists warned would make advancing human rights globally even more difficult.

Standing with U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Haley slammed Russia, China, Cuba and Egypt for thwarting U.S. efforts to reform the council. She also criticized countries which shared U.S. values and encouraged Washington to remain but "were unwilling to seriously challenge the status quo."

The United States is half-way through a three-year term on the main U.N. rights body and the Trump administration had long threatened to quit if the 47-member Geneva-based body was not overhauled.

"Look at the council membership, and you see an appalling disrespect for the most basic rights," said Haley, citing Venezuela, China, Cuba and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

This doesn't seem good because it will hamper the overall deterrence the body has on Human right abuse and encourage leaders who have no regards fro human right to keep abusing human rights just like we have in Nigeria today...I trust Trump knows what he is doing , they don't call him master of the art of the deal f3o nothing..

Its like human right, UN and US always act if it concern whites but most times neglect Africans until point of no return.

They are having issues based on what is happening in that's side of the world.
What of Africa, Nigeria bokoharam nick named Fulani herdsmen?, what of killing of Elzazaki followers in Kaduna, abuja Zaria?, what of massacring of peaceful Biafra agitators unarmed?, what of massacring of Anglophone Cameroonians that is going on now.

All this are human right abuse in Africa, what has UN and international human right done upon all the reports by Amnesty international in that respect.

It's a good move.

If it will hasten justice for Jews and Christians all over the World for the UN non challant attitude toward the Killings by Muslims. While shouting at the roof top when Muslims are being treated with their own kind of medicines...

Are Rohinya Muslims in Myanmar better than Northern Nigeria Christians..??
