Dalai Lama trip 'won't change' China's aim

The Dalai Lama's actions won't change Beijing's position on Tibet-related issues and the boundary question, a Foreign Ministry official said on Wednesday, after India invited the Dalai Lama to visit the disputed eastern section of the China-India boundary despite China's concerns.

The Dalai Lama's behavior, like claiming to be a "son of India" and endorsing false statements by the so-called Arunachal Pradesh officials in disputed areas in Southern Tibet, indicate that the Dalai Lama clique's position is thoroughly "foreign", said Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang.

Lu made the remarks when asked to comment on the Dalai Lama's attack on the Chinese government during his stay in the disputed region, as well as Indian officials' repeated, inappropriate speeches over the boundary question.
