"In a resolution adopted on 14 June, I, along with my fellow MEPs, called on the Vice-President of the Commission and High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy to appoint a special coordinator with a mandate to report regularly on Tibet in order to ‘advance respect for the human rights of the Tibetan people’, including ‘their right to preserve and develop their distinctive identity and its religious, cultural and linguistic manifestations’. I think it is important that this coordinator should also support constructive dialogue in the negotiations between the Chinese Government and the envoys of the Dalai Lama and provide assistance to Tibetan refugees, in particular in Nepal and India. I would therefore urge Baroness Ashton to raise the human rights situation in Tibet at the EU-China meetings. In this resolution, we also call on the Chinese authorities to grant genuine autonomy to the historical territory of Tibet and we ‘insist’ that they respect the freedom of expression, freedom of association and freedom of belief of the Tibetans, as well as their linguistic and cultural freedoms."@en1
