The Party has so far been following a more conventional strategy: last week it sent a delegation of officials to the US (the first ever sent, it said, to have been composed solely of Tibetans – a fact that one might expect them to have been embarrassed to admit) and had its leader, Shingtsa Tenzin Choedak, tell journalists that Tibetans enjoy freedom of religion.
Le gouverneur actuel du Tibet a reconnu que certains des manifestants de l’an dernier n’étaient pas « satisfaits par [leurs] mesures » sans pour autant les qualifier d’ennemis de l’état.
