China Lashes Out at Dalai Lama’s Visit to Mongolia « VOA Breaking News: "China says it has lodged a strong protest with neighboring Mongolia over a visit this week by the Dalai Lama.
Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Hong Lei announced the protest at a briefing in Beijing Tuesday.
He said China has always opposed any country providing the exiled spiritual leader with a platform to advocate independence from China for his native Tibet.
The Dalai Lama began a series of lectures and prayer sessions in Mongolia Tuesday after arriving from Japan, where he blamed Chinese policies for the self-immolations of 11 Buddhist monks and nuns in ethnic Tibetan areas of China."
