China condemns US and India’s Dalai Lama birthday greetings as subversive, reiterates vow of its own successor to him

Must Read

(TibetanReview.net, Jul08’24) – China’s party-government experts have condemned the United States and India for conveying their greetings to the exile spiritual leader of Tibet on his 89th birthday on Jul 6. They have condemned their actions as attempts to play “the so-called Dalai card” to contain China, according to China’s official globaltimes.cn Jul 7.

When asked whether the actions of the US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi may imply an intention to contain China by playing the so-called Dalai card, Zhu Weiqun, former head of the Ethnic and Religious Affairs Committee of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, affirmed such intention, the report said.

Without explaining what he meant by it, Zhu has maintained that “such attempts are increasingly ineffective as the influence of the Dalai clique has been declining, which is an inevitable historical trend.”

“The attempts of the US and India are a self-consoling elegy,” he has said.

Blinken extended his birthday greetings to the Dalai Lana in a statement on the website of the US Department of State while Modi did so in an X (formerly Twitter) post, wishing him a long life.

The report also had Chinese analysts refuting a Reuters report Jul 6, titled as titled “As the Dalai Lama turns 89, exiled Tibetans fear a future without him.”

“The initiative of finding the successor of Dalai Lama is firmly held by the Chinese central government,” Zhu has asserted, emphasizing that “the finding work will definitely be in accordance with relevant policies and the sincere wishes of religious believers in Xizang, and will never be based on the fantasies of the separatist Dalai clique.”
