Wang Xiaojian, a Chinese embassy spokesperson on Wednesday, said that the US must stop meddling with China's internal affairs on the pretext of the Tibetan issue. The statement comes a day after US Charge d'Affaires Atul Keshap met a representative of the Dalai Lama in New Delhi.
After meeting Ngodup Dongchung, Keshap said that the US supports religious freedom and preservation of the cultural and linguistic identity of the Tibetan population. It respects Dalai Lama's vision for equal rights for all, he added.
Xiaojian took to Twitter to slam the intervention. "@USAmbIndia Strongly opposed to repeated provocative acts by the US. Tibetan affairs are purely China's internal affairs that allow no foreign interference," he tweeted.
"The US should honour its commitment, stop meddling in China's internal affairs under the pretext of Tibetan affairs, offer no support to the "Tibetan independence" forces to engage in anti-China separatist activities," Wang said.
