第45回普遍的・定期的レビュー（UPR）作業部会対中華人民共和国審査　本清耕造大使ステートメント（2024年1月23日）

   Thank you, Mr. President.
 
   Japan is concerned about the human rights situation in China and makes the following recommendations:

   1) protect the rights of minorities, including the Tibetans and Uighurs, including their rights to enjoy their cultural and religious practices as recommended by the CESCR;

   2) guarantee the fundamental rights and freedoms set forth under the Hong Kong Basic Law and improve on the “One Country, Two Systems”;

   3) guarantee transparent legal procedures, including fair trials, access to legal representatives of defendants’ choosing, and prompt notifications to families; and

   4) ratify the ICCPR and ICPPED.

   Japan takes note of China’s initiatives on economic development, but expects China to take further actions to protect human rights.
