An obsolete trick of abusing "human rights and democracy" to interfere with other countries' internal affairs

8/5/18


While the Vietnamese people are heartened and proud of their great and historic achievements brought by more than 30 years of renovation, and enthusiastically implementing the resolution of the 10th Party Congress, hostile forces are increasing their activities against the Vietnamese revolution. One of their artifices is to use the labels of democracy and human rights which is far different from the correct interiority of human rights and democracy. Hostile forces use these labels to distort and blacken the situation in Vietnam, to perturb and create disunity in Vietnam. These hostile forces use democracy and human rights as a pretext and tool of external policy to intervene in the internal affairs of Vietnam.
 The 2017 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices of the US Department of State once again holds wrong assessments and prejudice on Vietnam’s situation.
No one can deny a practical fact that human rights are a universal and global matter. However, human rights also have historical value which are associated with concrete historical conditions and situations in each nation and region in the world. The concept of individual interests to western countries and the concept of national interest and community interest in oriental countries are different from each other and therefore hard to impose upon each other.
Some western countries have used the label of human rights to interfere into other countries’ internal affairs. They assume the right to impose “humanitarian interference” and propagandize the “non-frontier human rights” and the “superiority of human rights over the national sovereignty” at their discretion, with a view to denying the rights of nations, especially the rights of self-determination of the national fate and development path. One thing which has become a universal truth is that all nations are equal in national sovereignty, and the internal affairs of each nation should be determined by itself, no other single country can consider its social, political and economic development model as the pattern and impose it on other countries.
By continuing to harbour the feud against our country, hostile forces have exploited the matter of human rights and democracy to incite some opportunists and degenerate individuals in Vietnam to instigate violent disturbances against the socialist regime in Vietnam. This is unrighteous and serious interference into the internal affairs of Vietnam – an independent and sovereign country.
Based on the mistaken concept which considers human rights superior to sovereignty, hostile forces used human rights as the means to implement their plot of dominating the world. Self-proclaiming themselves as judge and international gendarme to teach others about human rights, but in fact they are using human rights as a tool to interfere into the internal affairs of other countries.
Each nation has its own historical, cultural and social characteristics and traditions. The socio-economic development level varies from one country to another. The Vietnamese nation since the date the Communist Party assumed its leadership has attained historic achievements: from the status of semi-feudal colony, our people struggled to seize back national independence and liberty, and develop according to the socialist path. Our people also regained their mastership over the country and society. The position and prestige of Vietnam in the international arena has constantly increased. Our country has advanced from a poor, backward and agricultural economy to the stage of industrialization and modernization. These are great, strategic achievements which have opened a new development stage for the country. These are also achievements in human rights and democracy which our people have acquired and no one can deny them.
The apparatus and operational mechanism of the State and the political system have been renewed in parallel with public administrative reform in order to tackle corruption, bureaucracy and harassment to the people, and build a strong, wealthy, equitable and civilized country. Although still facing a number of limitations and challenges, the socio-economic development in our country has witnessed significant achievements.
The Vietnamese people are living in an independent, democratic and liberal country with all their human rights. The democracy of Vietnam is implemented through the constitution and law under the leadership of the Communist Party of Vietnam and the management of the Socialist State of law of the people, by the people and for the people. This State brings into full play the self-reliant spirit and creativeness of the Vietnam Fatherland Front and ensures the true mastership of the Vietnamese people for a rich people, strong nation and a civilized, democratic and equitable society. This socialist State always consider the people as the root of the nation according to the principle “people know, people do and people examine and people decide their labor outcomes. The Vietnamese people have been implementing socialist democracy in order to bring into full play the strength of the great national unity, exploit all internal power and potentials to develop the country to drive our nation out of the less developed status and become an modern industrialized country by 2020./.

It is an old and filthy trick of hostile forces which always want to creat chaos in Vietnam, needed to be handled.

Everyone knows, domestic reactionary and overseas hostile forces have for a long time been attempting to depoliticize Vietnamese armed forces, and this is part of their “peaceful evolution” scheme.

Gentle Moon 8/5/18 22:27

To identify the dirty plot of their “peaceful evolution” scheme, people should refer to what happened to the former Soviet Union and Eastern European countries in late 1980s and early 1990s.

Aware of their malicious tricks and plots, Vietnam’s Party and State always believe in the Party’s leadership and struggle against the wrong arguments of the reactionary and hostile forces.

The efforts and achievements of Vietnam in restlessly ensuring and improving basic rights of its people have been recently recognized and highly praised by the international community.

For A Peace World 8/5/18 22:34

The consistent view of the VCP and State of Vietnam is that human rights are guaranteed and enforced by the Constitution and law.

Vietnam has the right to be a free and independent country and in fact is so already. The entire Vietnamese people are determined to mobilize all their physical and mental strength, to sacrifice their lives and property in order to safeguard their independence and liberty.

Achievements in ensuring and improving basic rights of the people of Vietnam are clearly expressed in the exercise of civil, political, economic, cultural and social rights, etc.
