You know it's quite ironic when the spokesperson of the UN is a South Korean and well-known to be a very pro-China.
Let's see how it goes in the UN.

I certainly take it's founding principles seriously. Do you have a problem with the concept of national self determination? Stop dodging the issue and either acknowledge or address this issue.

Whatever his political shortcomings may be. His broader goal is noble.

Huh? That wasn't even a coherent response to what you quoted.

I read your article. Did you?
This statement raises the question as to the extent of his authority over a younger generation of the Tibetan independence movement--one that is less willing to follow the route of non-violence as part of a "Middle Way" approach. We must avoid a turn to violence and radicalism from these groups at all costs. We cannot afford another Northern Ireland or Palestine.
So the part of my post you quoted is proved right by your own article. Frankly however I'm in favour of Tibetan radicalism.

How does that disprove what I said?
I'll repeat what I said...
Noone is disputing China is multiethnic
However it is multiethnic whether these ethnic groups like it or not that is the problem
i.e. 2 ethnic groups wanting independence from China is 2 ethnic groups too many.
