I
wish to express my solidarity with the people of Tibet during this
critical time in their history. To my dear friend His Holiness the
Dalai Lama, let me say: I stand with you. You define non-violence and
compassion and goodness. I was in an Easter retreat when the recent
tragic events unfolded in Tibet. I learned that China has stated you
caused violence. Clearly China does not know you, but they should. I
call on China's government to know His Holiness the Dalai Lama, as so
many have come to know, during these long decades years in exile.
Listen to His Holiness' pleas for restraint and calm and no further
violence against this civilian population of monastics and lay people.
I
urge China to enter into a substantive and meaningful dialogue with
this man of peace, the Dalai Lama. China is uniquely positioned to
impact and affect our world. Certainly the leaders of China know this
or they would not have bid for the Olympics. Killing, imprisonment and
torture are not a sport: the innocents must be released and given free
and fair trials.
I urge my esteemed friend Louise Arbour, the United Nations High
Commissioner for Human Rights to visit Tibet and be given access to
assess, and report to the international community, the events which led
to this international outcry for justice. The High Commissioner should
be allowed to travel with journalists, and other observers, who may
speak truth to power and level the playing field so that, indeed, this
episode -- these decades of struggle -- may attain a peaceful
resolution. This will help not only Tibet. It will help China.
And China, poised to receive the world during the forthcoming
Olympic Games needs to make sure the eyes of the world will see that
China has changed, that China is willing to be a responsible partner in
international global affairs. Finally, China must stop naming, blaming
and verbally abusing one whose life has been devoted to non violence,
His Holiness the Dalai Lama, a Nobel peace laureate.
