"Human Rights" is a Western construct. Europeans and Americans started caring about 'human rights' after they finished looting the globe for themselves and left the locals in charge of the scraps. Each country has evolved with its own culture and perspective on 'human rights.' But, of course, the West sets the standard for the moral imperative.
