The administration of US President Joe Biden is set to announce this week its plan to rejoin the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC), the Associated Press reported on Monday.

The report cited US officials as saying that on Monday, State Secretary Blinken will announce that the US is rejoining the body as an observer.
