The 14th Dalai Lama speaking with Japanese lawmakers in Tokyo, Japan - 06 Nov 2008
Speaking in Japan the Dalai Lama has said the situation in Tibet is continuing to deteriorate and that he has little faith negotiations with the Chinese government will lead to greater autonomy for the region. The exiled spiritual leader has been pursuing a "middle way" approach with Beijing that would allow Tibetans the autonomy to freely practice their culture, language and religion. However, lately he has grown frustrated and vocal about the lack of progress. "Now my faith in the Chinese government is becoming thinner, thinner, thinner," he said while speaking to Japanese lawmakers in Tokyo. And he has been given little hope after the end of recent talks between China and his representatives. Following conclusion of the talks a senior Chinese official ruled out giving Tibet the kind of autonomy that Beijing grants Hong Kong, saying the Tibetan spiritual leader should "face reality." He added that the Dalai Lama should comply with the times and correct his political stance fundamentally."
