Dr. Rana Siu Inboden, Senior Fellow with the Robert Strauss Center for International Security and Law at the University of Texas at Austin, recently appeared before the Congressional Executive Commission on China to discuss the State of Human Rights in China. Dr. Inboden discussed China’s history of manipulating its review process by the United Nations Human Rights Council in order to avoid scrutiny of its human rights record.

“China’s actions over the last decade show that the PRC has become intent on using its presence in the UN to alter international human rights norms and rewire the system in ways that will make it easier for states to escape scrutiny of their human rights records,” Inboden said.
