Q: It's reported that U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has recently released a statement on the 51st anniversary of the Dalai Clique's armed rebellion, criticizing the Tibet policy of the Chinese Government. What's China's comment on that?

A: The so-called statement you mentioned attacks China's internal affairs in disregard of facts. China is firmly opposed to the extremely irresponsible remarks.

Great achievements have been made in wide-ranging fields such as social and economic development, human rights as well as religious and cultural conservation since the democratic reform in Tibet 51 years ago, which is evident to all.

We urge relevant member of the U.S. Congress to respect facts, abandon prejudices and stop using Tibet-related issues to interfere in China's domestic affairs.
