Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Jiang Yu said, "China and the US have differences in history, culture, social systems and development, so it's normal that both countries have different stances on human rights issues. China is willing to carry out dialogue with the US on the basis of equality and mutual respect. We are looking forward to making positive achievements in our negotiations."
