As the talks between the Dalai Lama’s envoys and China failed to yield a breakthrough, Beijing intensified its attack on the monk accusing him of committing “monstrous crimes” and “fraud” and alleged that a Tibetan outfit based in India had links with terror group Al-Qaeda.
The Dalai Lama’s two envoys Lodi Gyari and Kelsang Gyaltsen returned to India after talks in Shenzen with nothing more than an assurance from Beijing to hold the next round of dialogue at “an appropriate time”.
At the meeting, the first after the unrest erupted in Tibet posing the most serious challenge to Beijing in the last two decades, China did some tough talking asking the Dalai Lama to make “credible moves” to stop violence and not to “sabotage” the Beijing Olympics to create conditions for the next round of parleys.
Describing the Tibetan Youth Congress as the “armed spearhead” of the Dalai, Xinhua news agency said “TYC has become a terrorist organisation.” “They had also sought support from terrorist organisations such as Al-Qaida and East Turkistan groups,” said Liu Hongji, an expert at China Tibetology Research Centre.
