EU approval of trade pact with Vietnam without considering Vietnam's major human rights violation is worrisome. The Taiwan's Charter for Permanent Peace clearly stated that 'the State shall observe universal human rights as a prerequisite in conducting international relations'. All countries in the world benefit from free trade and would flourish in One World under One Set of Laws. EU should both strive to build a common destiny for all humankind. This is the current trend, an undeniable fact and the ultimate path for all humankind. See the Charter for Permanent Peace for details. §1.9 §1.10 §5.1 §6.1 §6.10
