UN report on China's human rights 'positive': FM

A United Nations report on China's human rights is a "positive" one, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said Monday.

The Universal Periodic Review (UPR) report on China was adopted on Friday by the working group on the UPR of the Human Rights Council (HRC).

"The basic tune of this report is positive. It reflects the HRC's review on China in an objective and balanced manner," Hua told a regular press briefing.

Representatives from many countries expressed congratulations to China, Hua said.
