The diplomatic crisis between China and the United States over thefate of lawyer and activist Chen Guangcheng appeared to move towarda resolution on Friday after the Chinese government said it wouldallow the rights campaigner to apply to go overseas to study. After more than a week of talks over the fate of Mr. Chen, whospent six days at the U.S. Embassy here following his escape from ayear-and-a-half of house arrest, both sides had made progresstoward a deal, said U.S.
and Chinese officials. U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told reporters followingthe conclusion of the annual strategic and economic dialogue thatthe U.S. was "encouraged by progress we have seentoday", but she cautioned that "there is more work todo".
State Department spokesperson Victoria Nuland said Mr. Chen hadbeen offered a fellowship from an American university "wherehe can be accompanied by his wife and two children", andChinese authorities had indicated they would accept hisapplications for travel documents. The Chinese Foreign Ministry said earlier on Friday that Mr. Chen"may apply to study abroad according to laws with relevantdepartments and through the same channels as other Chinesecitizens", in a statement that was seen as reflecting a newChinese willingness to resolve the issue following its strongcriticism of the U.S.
only a day earlier. Talks overshadowed Mr. Chen's case overshadowed this week's strategic and economicdialogue, creating strains for both countries. China was angered byU.S.
involvement in its "internal affairs", while theObama administration faced criticism from activists for itshandling of the case. After leaving the embassy on Wednesday andmoving to a Beijing hospital for treatment, Mr. Chen expresseddisappointment with the embassy and said he only left its premisesafter Chinese authorities threatened to send his wife back to theirvillage of Dongshigu where she had suffered beatings during theirdetention. He expressed his wish to travel to the U.S.
along withhis family. ‘Committed to values' Ms. Clinton said the U.S. had "been very clear and verycommitted to honouring both his choices and our values". Hiscase was "not just about well-known activists", shesaid.
"It is about human rights and aspirations of more than abillion people in China… and about the future of this greatnation and all nations". The U.S. would "continueengaging with the Chinese government at the highest level and putthese concerns at the heart of our diplomacy," she said. State Councillor Dai Bingguo, who led the Chinese delegation intalks with Ms. Clinton, reiterated China's opposition tointerference in its internal affairs, and believed that no countrywas perfect in its human rights record.
"Human rights issues should not disturb state-to-staterelations," he said, "and they should not be used as anexcuse to interfere in the internal affairs of countries.".
