Jian Junbo : Sino-EU ties hijacked by Tibet issue

From the Asia Times Online:

This month, the European Union (EU) parliament passed a resolution on the Tibet issue, urging the Chinese government to resume dialogue with the Tibetan spiritual leader in exile, the Dalai Lama, for “real autonomy for Tibet”. However, a Chinese government spokesperson immediately rejected this, saying the call was interference in China’s “internal affairs”.

Not only the EU, but also all of its member states acknowledge that the Tibet Autonomous Region is a part of China, and they all adhere to the “one-China” policy, at least according to their laws and official statements.
