Secretary U.S. state calls for efforts to for the peaceful settlement of the crisis in Tibet. Anti-violence demonstration in New York in front of the Chinese consulate
to the crisis in Tibet is a solution that may not coincide with a new violent repression. Concerned about the "terrible situation" exploded after a week of protests by monks in Lhasa, the Tibetan capital, against the regime of terror imposed by China, Condoleezza Rice has addressed an appeal to the government in Beijing to reopen dialogue with the Dalai Lama, the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader, and put a stop to the tough action by police authorities. "Over the years we have repeatedly urged the Chinese government to find the path of dialogue with the Dalai Lama, a figure authoritative, not a separatist, and why it would involve, with all his moral weight, in finding a sustainable solution to the Tibetan issue, "said Rice," I wish it were now this way. " The appeal, launched during the flight carrying the U.S. Secretary of State to Moscow for bilateral talks on security and meeting with the president-elect Medvedev, alongside the demands of peace already expressed by European governments in recent days, but not is the support of the hosts of Rice on the age issue of Tibet, which the monks march for freedom of worship and the release of religious prisoners in Chinese prisons is just the latest expression, the Russian government does not intend to intervene. "Russia has often claimed that Tibet is an integral part of China and considers its relations with the Dalai Lama an internal matter for China", has said the Foreign Ministry, who added: "Attempts to pass on political issues China will host the Olympic Games is unacceptable. " Faced with the violent reaction of the Chinese government, which has killed at least 80 deaths among the protesters are in fact lots of requests from many quarters to boycott the Beijing Games, to be held in August, while Europe was traversed by a wave of protests from Paris to Rome to Prague, New York, several hundred activists pro-Tibet gathered yesterday in front of the Chinese consulate and shouting "Free Tibet" and "Shame, China, shame", asked the International Olympic Committee to reconsider the allocation of the 2008 Olympics. But the request has not met with the support of the Dalai Lama himself: what the Tibetan spiritual leader does not want the cancellation of the Games, but the international condemnation of the "regime of terror" and "cultural genocide" that China is carrying out in Tibet since 1951 and has worsened since 1989, when Chinese President Hu Jintao, then Communist Party secretary for the autonomous region, introduced martial law. "I want Games, "said the Dalai Lama," The Chinese people need to feel proud. China deserves to host the Olympic Games. "
The Dalai Lama is' an extraordinary man as America, Russia and China .... I have no words ...
