He pointed to some western countries' attempt for politicizing human rights in Yemen via imposing extension to senior experts team through Human Rights Council, confirming that the team's report is based on misleading information in addition to its bias and illogical contents according to testimonies of some countries in the council.

He pointed out that the government made its comments on the report, which was totally biased and dishonest, noting that Philippine has become also a target for some western countries trying to use human rights to impose their policies on Philippian government.

He pointed to government's concern that the Human Rights Council could be changed into a mean used by some western countries to interfere in countries internal affairs, a matter requires integrated position against these attempts.
