Isolated China tries to shift blame on Dalai lama
In another ballant lie China claims that Tibet was not an ethnic or religious issue. After illegally occupying Tibet and gross human rights violations, China asks the international community to see through Dalai Lama’s “attempt to split” the country and decried attempts to link the 2008 Beijing Olympics with the Communist nation’s human rights.
Chinese Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi also claimed that “More and more countries in Europe have recognised that this issue concerns China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.”
China also dismissed the Dalai Lama’s charge of religious repression and “unimaginable and gross” violation of human rights in Tibet leveled against Beijing and also flayed attempts to link the 2008 Beijing Olympics with Tibet.
Ironically Communists China Foreign Minister Yang also accused critics of Chinese human rights violation of double standards.
The Dalai Lama had criticised China in a speech to mark the 49th anniversary of “Tibet Uprising Day” at Dharamsala, the seat of Tibetan government in exile, before hundreds of Tibetans began a march to Tibet to protest against China hosting the Olympics.
