First, the government criticized the news about the Dalai Lama in a state media of Nepal. Second, two Nepalese parliamentarians went to Europe to attend a meeting related to the so-called Tibetan independence movement.<\/p>\n<div class=\"don\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What does the Dalai Lama mean to Nepal?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Tibet under the Dalai Lama is a slave society<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After fleeing to India, the Dalai Lama and his so-called government in exile in Dharamshala talk about religious freedom and human rights every day. But what was the real situation in Tibet when the Dalai Lama ruled?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From the beginning of the birth of human civilization, human society gradually experienced the primitive society, slave society and feudal society. However, before 1959, Tibet was still in a slavery society. Under the feudal serfdom system, serfs and slaves, who accounted for more than 95 percent of the Tibetan population, had no personal freedom and were oppressed and exploited by nobles and monks from the upper classes. In order to maintain their cruel rule, slave owners used such cruel punishments as cut out eyes, hands or feet and flaying skin on slaves who dared to resist.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In preparation for a ceremonial celebration of the Dalai Lama\u2019s birthday, the temple asked local serf owners to offer\u201ca wet human intestine, two human heads, a human skin and the blood of various people and animals\u201d, according to an old Tibetan archive. While only 5 percent of the population lived in luxury, 95 percent of the Tibetan serfs lived like animals.The brutality of the old Tibetan regime was beyond modern imagination\uff0c<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As horrific as the physical torture was, the ruling class in old Tibet used religion to exert mental control over serfs, keeping them from demanding equality. The monks tell them that if you dare to pursue a better life, you will not obey the cycle of fate, and the next life will be more difficult than the present.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>The Dalai Lama and his so-called Tibetan independence movement have been closely linked to ups and downs in China-US relations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>In 2015, GyaloThondup, the Dalai Lama\u2019s second brother, published a memoir\uff0cas an intermediary between the Dalai Lama and the Americans, he has uncovered many secrets.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Gyalo Thondup wrote\uff0cWhen the people\u2019s liberation army began a march into Tibet in 1950, he quietly went to India. He considered that if the Dalai Lama had rebelled, he would have to devise an escape route in advance. In India, he has been in contact with the CIA personnel. The plan was to use air drops to bring radio and weapons into China. With CIA training, two Tibetans managed to reach the Dalai Lama and accompany him on his escape. While on the run, they have been using radio stations to communicate with India.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In fact, from the beginning, the United States has been using Tibet as a card to contain China\u2019s development. And the U.S. support for the Dalai Lama is closely related to the ups and downs of China-U.S. relations. As noted above, the United States began working with the Dalai Lama and planning to support an armed insurgency in Tibet in the early 1950s, when China and the United States were engaged in the biggest war since World War II in Korea.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Starting in the 1970s, the United States needed China\u2019s cooperation in competing with the Soviet Union and ending the Vietnam war as the cold war entered its \u201d The soviets attacked, the Americans defended \u201d phase. After secretary of state Henry Kissinger and President Nixon made visits to China, and the normalization of relations between China and the United States was on the agenda, the CIA gave up its support to the\u201cKham pa guerrillas\u201don the China-Nepal border. Subsequently, with the great help of the king and the army of Nepal, the \u201cKham pa guerrillas\u201d, a common headache for Nepal and China, were eliminated by the Nepalese army.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 1989, at the end of the cold war, the western countries, led by the United States, began to exert pressure on the socialist camp, hoping to eliminate the socialist system on the planet. That year, with western help, the Dalai Lama won the so-called Nobel peace prize.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 2008, before the Beijing Olympics, Tibetan separatists from inside and outside Tibet colluded in rioting on the streets of Lhasa on March 14th, to embarrass Beijing and show the west that they still had something to offer. They killed innocent people in the street, burned houses and set vehicles ablaze, but all this was described only as a \u201cpeaceful demonstration\u201d by the Tibetan separatists, led by the Dalai Lama.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Now that China-U.S. relations are shifting from cooperation to competition, how will Americans play the Tibet card again?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-64242\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kathmandupati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/xi-bidhya.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kathmandupati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/xi-bidhya.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.kathmandupati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/xi-bidhya-300x231.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kathmandupati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/xi-bidhya-768x592.jpg 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"617\" \/>What does the Dalai Lama mean to Nepal?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Most of the countries in the world recognize the one-China policy and regard Tibet and Taiwan as the inseparable parts of China. Even the Americans behind the so-called Tibetan independence movement recognize that Tibet and Taiwan are part of China, too. In a 2009 interview, GyaloThondup said publicly, the Americans can only make trouble for China, they don\u2019t have a long-term policy toward Tibet.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is not only those around the Dalai Lama who see the nature of the Tibetan issue, but also Indians who increasingly see the Dalai Lama as a negative asset in improving relations with China. In 2017, after the Donglam crisis, China-India relations entered an upward track. In order to curry favor with the Indian government and prevent India from forgetting them, the Dalai Lama and the so-called government-in-exile plan to hold a \u201cthank India\u201d event in Delhi in 2018 to mark the 60th anniversary of the Dalai Lama\u2019s flight to India. The Indian government, which was trying to improve relations with China at that time, ordered all Indian government officials not to participate in the activities of the Dalai Lama, which made the Dalai Lama lose face and finally forced the Dalai Lama to cancel his plans to hold the event in Delhi.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On June 13, 2019, Chinese President Xi Jinping met with India\u2019s newly elected prime minister Narendra Modi in Bishkek. During the meeting, President Xi Jinping said that Beijing is ready to join New Delhi in pushing forward a closer development partnership between the two sides, stressed that China and India should strengthen cooperation and manage differences. At the same time, as important representatives of developing countries and emerging markets, China and India should jointly uphold free trade, multilateralism and the right to development of developing countries. In the same time, prime minister Modi said his meeting with Xi last year in Wuhan was very successful, which has helped achieve new progress in bilateral ties, adding that the Indian side is ready to work with China in intensifying high-level exchanges and bolstering strategic communication. He called on the two sides to promote bilateral ties in broad areas, explore new sectors for cooperation, and properly handle their differences.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_64241\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"text-align: justify;\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-64241\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-64241\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kathmandupati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/biseskh-modi-xi.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kathmandupati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/biseskh-modi-xi.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.kathmandupati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/biseskh-modi-xi-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kathmandupati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/biseskh-modi-xi-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kathmandupati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/biseskh-modi-xi-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-64241\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chinese President Xi Jinping meets with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, June 13, 2019.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Prithvi Narayan Shah, the founding king of Nepal\u2019s Shah dynasty, once said that Nepal is a yam sandwiched between two huge rocks, China and India. Since then, maintaining a balance between China and India has been an important principle of Nepal\u2019s diplomacy, which continues to this day. Under the guidance of this principle, \u201cnever allow any external forces to use Nepal\u2019s territory to do harm to Nepal\u2019s neighbors\u201d has become an outstanding feature of Nepal\u2019s diplomatic practice.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although the Internal factors in Nepal is the ultimate decisive force in Nepal\u2019s affairs, as a landlocked country with special geopolitical situation, the influence of China-India relations on Nepal cannot be ignored. History has shown time and again that when relations between China and India are tense, Nepal will feel uncomfortable in the middle, when China-India relations improve, Nepal will be given more diplomatic space.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As China-India relations continue to improve, Nepal\u2019s external environment will also be greatly improved. For Nepalis, who have suffered from political unrest for a long time, this is a good time to seize the strategic opportunity to improve economic construction, social development and people\u2019s living standards.
