From BBC (link):
Tibet’s exiled spiritual leader the Dalai Lama has repeated his wish to visit China, on the anniversary of the 1959 uprising against China’s takeover.
The Dalai Lama has made several such calls before, but China has always refused, accusing him of separatism.
The Dalai Lama said he wanted to see for himself China’s development and visit Buddhist pilgrimage sites.
In a speech to mark the anniversary, he also stressed his desire for Tibetan autonomy, not independence.
