Obama to meet the Dalai Lama; China sees red

Obama, Dalai Lama meeting could 'irritate China very much'
February 18, 2010 6:33 a.m. EST

Washington (CNN) -- Despite strong objections from the Chinese government, President Obama will meet the Dalai Lama, the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader, at the White House on Thursday.

The meeting has the potential to further complicate Sino-U.S. tensions, rising in recent months.

China has warned that it will certainly damage ties to Washington.

"It will seriously undermine the Sino-U.S. political relations," Zhu Weiqun, a senior Communist Party leader in charge of ethnic and religious affairs, said recently. "We will take corresponding action to make relevant countries see their mistakes."

The Dalai Lama has said he favors genuine autonomy for Tibetans, not independence for Tibet. Beijing regards the Nobel Peace Prize laureate as a dangerous "separatist," a politician who wishes to sever Tibet from China.

Obama did not meet with the Dalai Lama when the latter visited Washington last fall, making it the first time since 1991 that such a meeting did not occur. Ahead of a summit with Chinese President Hu Jintao, Obama persuaded Tibetan representatives back then to postpone the meeting with the Dalai Lama.

Now, the meeting will take place as several prickly issues have come between Washington and Beijing including trade disputes; a recent U.S. arm sales deal for Taiwan, which China considers an illegitimate breakaway province; and a censorship row over Internet search engine Google Inc.

"It's going to be another event in the recent, one has to say, downward spiral in U.S.-China relations," said China scholar David Shambaugh.

Obama's meeting is also troublesome for the Chinese for one other important reason, Shambaugh said.

"He could have met him as a spiritual leader in a neutral place like a church," he said. "But he is going to receive him in the White House, and that is a political act. And that is going to irritate China very much."

The Dalai Lama also is scheduled to meet Secretary of State Hillary Clinton at the State Department.

Some analysts said the Chinese could retaliate by cutting off political exchanges as they did after the Dalai Lama met with the heads of state of France and Germany. And Hu could turn down an invitation to visit Washington in April.

Neither China nor the United States can afford strained relations, said Douglas Paal, a diplomat and investment banker who has served as a presidential advisor on China.

"We both need each other," he said. "We need each other for a number of international security issues -- to deal with the global climate crisis, to deal with the global financial crisis."

Why a big country like China is afraid of one man (Dalai Lama). If they really are strong and powerful why are they making so much noise.

Sa ahong paminaw, hadlok ang China nga makakabig og simpatiya and Dalai Lama. Gawas pa, mawiwi na pud ang samad sa ilahang pagdaog-daog sa mga Tibetans. Na-isyu na ra ba pud ang ilang kalaki sa Xinjiang.

kun nagtoo ang china nga sakto sila, di unta sila mahadlok nga mahibaw-an ang ilang gibuhat.  unsaon, daghan tingalig di mao nga tinagoan, mao nga mahadlok ug usa ka tawo nga wa ganiy army intawon.

Gidanginot pa gani sa China ang Facebook ug uban pa basin mabal an ning TB ma ban man kaha ni sa China unsa pa kaha ang Dalai Lama nga very influential man kaayo ni. Guilty ang China mao ing react sa Dalai Lama. Peace loving people man gud ning Dalai Lama unya makig meet pud sa President diri nga awardee sa nobel peace prize mao ni nagpanic sila.
