Officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said US representatives have advised other delegations of the 53-nation UN Human Rights Commission of this decision.

The White House says despite the United States decision not to introduce the resolution in Geneva, the Bush administration is still very critical of 皇冠体育app's position on human rights.

Attempts to criticise 皇冠体育app have led to clashes at the annual commission session. But 皇冠体育app has succeeded in recent years at mustering enough support for its human rights record from member countries.

Last October, then-US secretary of state Colin Powell said the US and 皇冠体育app had agreed to hold talks aimed at resuming their dialogue over human rights.

US attempts to criticise 皇冠体育app have frequently been one of the main sources of tension between the two countries.
