Sha Zukang is an expert in multilateral diplomatic negotiations, and his voice has repeatedly sounded on behalf of China at United Nations Headquarters. He is called China's diplomatic fighter. On the battlefield without smoke, he advocated dare to struggle and show his sword. On June 8, 2006, he helped Chen Fengfuzhen stand for election in Geneva, and China's multilateral diplomacy won a great victory. Margaret Chan from Hongkong, China was successfully elected as the Director-General of the World Health Organization. This is the first time since the founding of the United Nations 6 1 years ago that China people have served as the highest directors of international organizations. It was Ambassador Sha Zukang, who represented the China government, who always stood by Chen Fengfuzhen's side and gave her strong support at the front line of the Geneva campaign. Sha Zukang: "When the number of votes was reported as 18, I shed tears of excitement. Knife rest on the neck, are people who don't cry. I have such confidence, but I am so excited. " "After the news was released, every bone of mine was broken. A few days before the election, I received 12 to 13 ambassadors a day. Even at 1 1 in the evening, I met with the health ministers of the countries concerned and informed him of the situation, telling him that it was not easy to sharpen guns at the cold feet. We deserved to win, and of course we won very beautifully. " Geneva has always been the main battlefield of the human rights struggle. In March 2004, at the 60th session of the United Nations Human Rights Assembly, facing the anti-China proposal thrown by the United States at the meeting, Sha Zukang fought back and made an impromptu reply in English. Sha Zukang humorously expressed his willingness to send a mirror to the United States for free. "Western countries are by no means models of countries that protect human rights, and developing countries are by no means leaders in human rights violations. The United Nations Conference on Human Rights did not authorize any country or group of countries to become human rights judges, and developing countries should not always be defendants in human rights courts. There is an old saying in China, "Correct yourself first". We hope that individual countries will take a good look at themselves with a mirror before criticizing and accusing others. " In Geneva, diplomatic negotiations are extremely complicated and intense. In 20001year, Sha Zukang, then 54 years old, returned to Geneva as the Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of the Permanent Mission of China to the United Nations Office at Geneva. At the beginning of his tenure, he startled the British ambassador. British Ambassador: "Your Excellency, we in the British Empire are concerned about your human rights situation." Sha Zukang: "Ambassador, do you know what I am thinking now? How come I think of the Opium War as soon as I see your face! At that time, you forced the people of China to take opium, but the people of China refused, so you started a war. Opium infringes on China people's right to health. How many years have you illegally occupied Hong Kong? 1997. During your occupation, you never held any elections in Hong Kong. Today you suddenly care about the rights of the people of China? " America had better shut up. Sha Zukang often jokes that he is a peasant diplomat, and he likes to be straightforward and speak frankly. Foreign media also commented that his diplomatic style was "surprisingly frank". In an interview with BBC reporters in August 2006, Sha Zukang said angrily that the United States had better shut up and keep quiet when talking about the US government's concern about China's increasing military budget. Sha Zukang: "A few years ago, the US military expenditure was equivalent to the gross national product. Our 654.380+300 million people don't eat or drink, and everything they produce is equivalent to the total military expenditure of the United States. The United States had better shut up and keep quiet. "
