	Binh said it has been Vietnam&rsquo;s consistent policy to promote and respect human rights. All citizens are allowed to practise their rights within the law, he said.</div>
<div>
	He said Vietnam&rsquo;s efforts were clearly noted by the international community at its completion of the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) recently in February.</div>
