China has said that the U.S. would be "major progress" in the field of human rights, but it should be no double standards or any interference in its internal affairs through the use of the subject.

At the fourth US-China dialogue on human rights, Beijing said China was fully "confident" about human rights and it would be "even greater progress" and that the dispute between the two nations on the issue should be resolved in a constructive manner "
