For free Tibet!


Tibet- so far from Europe. For that reason average European doesn't know much about the mysterious and closed for the West country. Tibet is called a lost country- namely in abiding vasall addiction, Tibet has managed to conserve its exceptional culture- till the 20. century, when Mao Zedong and his overwhelming forces destroyed it in a devastating speed. Even nowadays causeless arrests, beating, excruciation and even execution are the daily working habits of the Chinese authorities. After the year 1949, about 6000 religion centers has been destroyed and over 1,2 million people has been killed. His Holiness The Dalai Lama, who is the spiritual leader of Tibet is in India exile, incapable of return to the land he loves. The Dalai Lama is acknowledged as a honorable and important politician. Even John F. Kennedy thought that communicating with him is a great honour (other west politicians think the same). Alas the temptation of Chinas huge market is a great enticement to the businessmen of West that the politicians dare not to do nothing else than remind the Chinese government The Dalai Lama and Tibet with whom they should start negotiations.

Fortunately EU is one of those few unions, which are interested abou Tibet.
For example:
“In addition, the resolution calls on the Council Presidency to adopt a Declaration indicating "how the EU could facilitate progress towards a peaceful and negotiated solution for Tibet". Parliament also requests that the Council's annual CFSP report include information on progress in the dialogue.” http://www.tibet.com/NewsRoom/euroresolution2.htm

Or the organization Students for a Free Tibet:
"Students for a Free Tibet (SFT) works in solidarity with the Tibetan people to achieve their quest for freedom and independence. We raise political, economic, environmental, and social issues that affect Tibetans living in Tibet and in exile to the government and the public in the UK. As a network of young people around the world, we campaign for fundamental right of Tibetans to independence. We believe that young people can and must take responsibility to change our world for the better!http://www.sftuk.org

The Dalai Lama: I would remind that it does not matter from which continent we are from, we are still the same people. We all pursue after happines and try to avoid sufferings. We all have the same basic needs and worries. At that we all, people, desire to be free and define as individuals our own destiny.

Estonia has achieved independence, Tibet has not.

"It is very beautiful act, if Estonian republic could invite The Dalai Lama to visit us. This is the last time for us to stop groverling from the communists- this time the communists of China, not only in words, but in actions too!"(Linnart Mäll)


What can an average European to do, to help Tibet? The Dalai Lama has said that talk about the situation in Tibet. When more people know about Tibet, then more often one question is going to be asked: When Tibet is going to be free?
EU should be more active in the Tibet question and it must not be so afraid of China. We have to support Tibet not only in words, but in actions too.

For the peace of the world! For Tibet!
