Vietnam attends UN’s session on ICCPR implementation

7/3/19

Vietnam’s efforts and achievements in protecting and promoting civil and political rights will be shared at the 125th session of the United Nations Human Rights Committee in Geneva, Switzerland, from March 11-12.

At this session, the Human Rights Committee will review Vietnam’s third national report on the implementation of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR).

Deputy Minister of Justice Nguyen Khanh Ngoc will attend the event.

Vietnam submitted its third national report on the ICCPR enforcement and a report in reply to a list of issues of interest of the UN Human Rights Committee. They all showed Vietnam’s efforts in improving policies and regulations on human rights as well as the country’s comprehensive development in protecting and promoting civil and political rights after the second report presented in 2002. 

The ICCPR is an international human rights treaty adopted by the United Nations in 1966./.

With the policy of taking people as the goal and momentum for the country’s inclusive reform and development, since the previous review in 2014, Vietnam has gained remarkable accomplishments in promoting and protecting human rights.

Vietnam has also joined UN human rights related mechanisms such as the Special Procedures of the HRC, Convention against Torture and the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.

The international community appreciated Vietnam’s endeavours in reducing poverty and narrowing development gaps among regions as well as ensuring access to healthcare and education, particularly for people inhabiting remote and ethnic minority areas.

I hope Vietnam will continue with dialogues and international cooperation on human rights, making more contributions to the international community’s efforts to promote and protect human rights.

Vietnam has joined all ICCPR cycles and seriously and fully implemented recommendations it received.

It's a specific move demonstrating Vietnam ’s commitment to realising International Covenants on Civil and Political Rights and on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, as well as the 1948 Human Rights Declaration.
