DHARAMSHALA, June 21: A group of seven international rights organization has called on the European Union (EU) to cancel the upcoming human rights dialogue with China on June 22 and 23, urging to suspend the exchanges until the meetings can bring ‘genuine human rights improvements’.

The organizations including Amnesty International, Initiatives for China, the International Campaign for Tibet, the International Service for Human Rights, Human Rights in China, Human Rights Watch, and the Unrepresented Nations and Peoples Organization also reminded the EU and its members’ commitment to throw ‘full weight behind advocates of liberty, democracy and human rights throughout the world’.

“We urged that the EU demonstrate a unified, unambiguous position on human rights in China as the situation there has deteriorated,” the group said while highlighting EU’s failed attempts in recent time to address deteriorating human rights situation in China.

“On three occasions over three weeks the EU demonstrated no intention, compassion, or strategic vision to stem the tide of human rights abuses in China,” said Sophie Richardson, China director at HRW.

“The EU should not further harm its credibility, but rather redirect its efforts toward bringing meaningful change to China,” she said.

The organizations pointed out how the EU Council and Commission presidents did not ‘forcefully condemn’ deteriorating human rights situation at its 19th Summit with China on June 2; not observing the anniversary of Tiananmen Square massacre and for delivering a statement under agenda item 4 in the UN Human Rights Council on June 15.

“The EU’s June 2016 China strategy gives the EU the opportunity to suspend and review any of its dozens of bilateral dialogues with China, including the human rights dialogue. The EU should suspend the dialogue rather than proceed with a meaningless low-level exercise,” the organizations said as EU President Donald Tusk on June 2 had announced the next round of the EU-China human rights dialogue to be held at a lower governmental level on China’s side.

“The EU’s failure to speak out on Beijing’s rights violations is a body blow to independent activists across China and a betrayal of the EU’s proclaimed human rights commitments,” said Iverna McGowan, head of European Institutions Office at Amnesty International.

The organizations have urged the EU to establish clear benchmarks for human rights progress in China and also to integrate them into all EU and EU member states’ high-level meetings with China.
