"Mr President, the Nepalese authorities prevented, under pressure from the Chinese Government, around 20 000 Tibetans in Nepal from voting in the elections for the prime minister of the Tibetan Government in exile. The right to vote, as well as the right to free elections and peaceful demonstration, are fundamental rights for every individual and for communities. The more obstacles there are preventing people from exercising these rights, the greater their determination to exercise them. I firmly believe that the desire of Tibetans in Nepal to elect their Head of Government in exile is also greater. Indeed, the attempts by the Nepalese and Chinese authorities to rule them by fear have had exactly the opposite result.
I call on the European Union’s High Representative to express clearly these demands and measures from the European Parliament when in dialogue with the Nepalese and Chinese authorities."@en1
