Dalai Lama says US wants serious engagement on Tibet | Tibetan spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama, has said U.S. President Barack Obama wants serious engagement on Tibet. Addressing the ongoing session of the Indian Federation of Working Journalists here on Saturday, Dalai Lama said without any
time frame, he was sure that winds of change would sweep China. "China have to
go along with the world trends...no matter how powerful the China is, it have
to go with this way and that is democracy, freedom, rule of law, independent judiciary
and freedom of news is very important, things will change definitely, how soon
no one knows," said the Dalai Lama. The Dalai Lama said the US president probably
did not meet him before his China visit because of diplomatic reasons. "President
Obama himself wants to do something for Tibet and it is sure...so he want to get
more serious engagements about Tibet so if he meet me before his China visit then
the Chinese government have to take some punitive action against him like it does
in the case of French President and German Chancellor," he said. Obama had called
for a resumption of dialogue between the Dalai Lama's envoys and China to resolve
the Tibet crisis during his just-concluded visit to Beijing. The Tibetan government-in-exile
said last week it was willing to talk to China following Obama's comments. |
