New Delhi, Dec 6: Tibetan people are “dying a slow death” in the face of China’s repression and the democratic nations must stand up to the Chinese belligerence, the president of Tibet’s government-in-exile Penpa Tsering has said.
Tsering said democratic nations around the world must look at the “internal forces” such as the Tibetans, Uyghur leaders and pro-democratic activists in Hong Kong to put pressure on Beijing to reverse its aggressive approach and bring “positive changes” within that country. He said there has not been much understanding in the world about the extent of China’s strategic objectives and plans and that there is a need to create awareness on what Beijing’s machinations are.
In an address at an awareness event on Panchen Lama, the Sikyong or political leader of the exiled Central Tibetan Administration accused China of destroying the historical basis of Tibet’s existence. “I have been telling the world that “we are dying a slow death, we are being stricken by being squeezed out of our breath by the dragon,” he said last night.
