We've got countries on the Human Rights Council right now
like Venezuela and Cuba, and what these actors do is they get on the council so
that the finger's never pointed to them," she continued. "As much
that has happened with Venezuela...with the deaths that we've had, with the
injuries that we've had, with the political prisoners that have been in place,
not once has the Human Rights Council called on Venezuela. Well, that's because
they sit on the council. And so we do care about human rights. And that's why
I'm going to Geneva. That's why I'm going to be talking about it. And that's
why I'm going to tell them if the U.S. is going to be a part of the Human
Rights Council, then the Human Rights Council has to have credibility."
