Alexey Maslov, head of the School of Asian Studies at the Russian National Research University- Higher School of Economics, said Monday that after reading the counter-terrorism law he found no content infringing upon human rights.

"The law was established generally according to the principle of the international law," he said.

Actually, China has been faced with terrorist threats for a long time, and with China's increasingly active participation in international affairs as well as the breakout of terror attacks in some areas, China has to introduce the law to pilot movements in such field, the Russian expert said.

NATURAL RESULT OF CURRENT SITUATION

The enactment of counter-terrorism law conforms to the international trend and is a part of China's international responsibility, Oh Ei Sun said. Other countries have also endorsed similar laws featuring stricter articles, he explained.

In a statement issued on Sunday by the Belarussian Foreign Ministry, the Eastern European country welcomed China's move to adopt the counter-terrorism law, saying terrorism has become common in many parts of the world, and it is challenging the foundations and values of the international community and has become a major threat to peace and stability.

Fred Nyabera, a Kenyan peace and security expert, said Monday the introduction of the law is a prompt and effective measure to global terrorism, which, along with religious extremist forces, is a common challenge facing human being and threatens the world peace.

His country applauded China's determination to fight terrorism, which is embodied in the enactment of the new counter-terrorism law, the expert said.

China has mature experience in fighting terrorism, and is able to offer intelligence, equipment and personnel support to Kenya and other African countries, Nyabera said.

Ali Ahmd, advisor of Syrian Ministry of Information, said Monday the enactment of anti-terrorism law is a self-defence for the country as terrorist groups carried out activities aimed to destroy achievements yielded in China's development.
