数以十计生活在印度的西藏人于本周在中华人民共和国大使馆外举行抗议活动,反对其祖国境内的人权状况,中国是在1951年吞并该地区的。
警方阻止了示威者进入使馆,并对追赶并将其摔倒地上的参与者进行了拘留。
抗议发生在纪念共产党执政75周年的背景下。
组织这次抗议的西藏青年会议指责中国打压藏族文化。抗议人士桑姆·丹增要求说:“我们呼吁中国的共产政府停止在西藏的文化灭绝,我们敦促国际社会支持西藏的正义事业。”
流亡印度的西藏政府指责中国政府在西藏境内剥夺基本人权并消灭藏人身份。
据信,在印度有至少85,000名藏族难民。达赖喇嘛,他们的精神领袖,自1959年流亡以来,在印度北部的达尔玛沙拉建立基地,并在那里避开了对中国的反抗行动失败后逃出西藏的努力。一个藏政府驻外代表也居住在该地。
达赖喇嘛否认中国声称他是分离主义者,并表示他只主张实质性自治以及保护藏族本土佛教文化免受侵害。

原文摘要:
Dozens of Tibetans living in India protested outside China's embassy on Tuesday against the human rights situation in their homeland, which China annexed in 1951. Police blocked the protesters from entering the embassy and detained some after chasing them and wrestling them to the ground. The protest came as China marks its 75th year of Communist Party rule. The Tibetan Youth Congress, which organized the protest, blames China for repressing Tibetan culture. “We demand the Chinese Communist government to stop the cultural genocide in Tibet. We urge the international community to support the just cause of Tibet,” said protester Sonam Tenzin. The Tibetan government-in-exile in India accuses China of denying fundamental human rights to people in Tibet and of exterminating Tibetan identity. At least 85,000 Tibetan refugees live in India. The Dalai Lama — their spiritual leader — has made Dharamshala in northern India his headquarters since fleeing Tibet after a failed uprising against Chinese rule in 1959. Representatives of a Tibetan government-in-exile also reside there. The Dalai Lama denies China’s claim that he is a separatist and says he only advocates substantial autonomy and protection of Tibet’s native Buddhist culture.
