China Pats Sri Lanka for Not Permitting Dalai Lama's Visit
China on Friday lauded the new Sri Lankan government for not allowing the Dalai Lama to visit the Buddhist-majority country disregarding the wishes of its influential monks to invite the Tibetan spiritual leader. Reacting to reports from Colombo that Sri Lankan government would not like to displease the Chinese government by inviting Dalai Lama, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Hua Chunying told a media briefing here today that Beijing is firmly opposed to the Tibetan leader's visit to any country.
"The Chinese side has made clear its position on Dalai Lama on many occasions. We are firmly opposed to the visits by the Dalai Lama," she said.
China is also opposed to countries to "provide venues of connivance" for Dalai Lama to visit their countries, she said.
"Sri Lanka is friendly neighbour of China and Sri Lankan side respects and understand relevant concerns of China on this issue. We would like to make joint efforts with Sri Lanka to cement our traditional friendship," she said.
