Obama is planning to host the Dali Lama for a meeting. The Chinese protest, here's what they have to say in their statement....
"By arranging a meeting between the President and the Dalai Lama, the U.S. side will grossly interfere in the internal affairs of China, seriously violate norms governing international relations and severely impair China-U.S. relations.
Tibet-related affairs fall entirely within the internal affairs of China which allow no foreign interference,"
Here is the American counter-statement:
"The United States recognizes Tibet to be a part of the People's Republic of China and we do not support Tibetan independence. The United States strongly supports human rights and religious freedom in China."
What do you think. Should Obama meet the Dali Lama, or are we meddling in another country's domestic affairs?
