TIBET EQUILIBRIUM – 66 YEARS AND COUNTING – TIBET AND CHINA
TIBET EQUILIBRIUM – 66 YEARS AND COUNTING – TIBET AND CHINA.
American China Fantasy is Doomed. The reason is that of America’s Unfinished War in Asia. The Cold War in Asia is not about Tibet’s Independence or Autonomy. The Cold War is about engaging, containing, confronting, opposing, and resisting the threat posed by Communism and its influence in Asia.
It is 66 years and counting since the People’s Liberation Army moved into Tibet, and 58 years since the initial surrender pact with the Tibetans collapsed, leading the Dalai Lama to flee to India with 80,000 or more other Tibetans. Those exiles or their descendants are still abroad, and the prospects of any resolution seem as remote as at any time in the last 30 years. Meanwhile, access to Tibet for outsiders remains more restricted than anywhere else in China, most Tibetans are unable to obtain passports and travel abroad, and reports of demonstrations, arrests and suicide protests continue to trickle out.
