Tibetan PM says India-China friendship vital for world peace
Dharamsala, October 19 - Exile Tibetan prime minister has said that the stability in India – China relationship is of utmost importance to peace in Asia and the world. The first Tibetan prime minister directly elected by the people was speaking Sunday after the 56th convocation of the Gujarat Vidyapeeth in the western Indian city of Ahmedabad.
Rinpoche said the tension between India and China will not last long and will be resolved soon. "Off late China has become aggressive in its relations with rest of the world. Its dispute with India has also become a cause of concern," Rinpoche said."But I don't believe that this tension between India and China will continue for long. I think slowly and gradually it will be resolved."
The former academician and speaker of the Tibetan parliament said his government is committed to the middle way approach of seeking genuine autonomy through negotiations. Reacting to a question on ‘growing impatience among Tibetan youths’ he said violence is not the solution to any problem. "People who are in favour of violent methods to resolve the issue of Tibet are in minority. Violence cannot bring solution to these issues; it only complicates them. The eye-opening examples are of Sri Lanka, Israel, Palestine, Iraq and Afghanistan. We still believe in our non-violent agitation for Tibet's autonomy and will continue with it."
