India's High Commissioner to the UK shows @SkyYaldaHakim a photo which he claims shows Pakistani military standing behind "a sanctioned terrorist under the American sanctions regime" called Hafiz Abdul Rauf.

Sky News cannot verify the photo.

" China, too, has used renaming as a tool of imperial erasure, particularly in Tibet, where it has sought to replace the globally recognized name “Tibet” with “Xizang." A good read on China's colonial strategy of renaming.

Volkswagen had always prioritized cutthroat profit over humanity, no exception in #Xinjiang. Good that Karma and great advocacy pushed them out.

[Adrian Zenz @adrianzenz]

Incredible news: Volkswagen will fully divest from Xinjiang, sell both plant and test track.

A huge victory for the Uyghur cause.

This comes after our work exposed forced labor linked to the test track, and the faulty factory audit.

Can the political parties stop blaming each other and work collectively in the name of value for human (and animal) lives and the country's image?!

Politics is the art of blaming the other party with consistency and conviction...

[Namrata Hasija (夏海娜) @hasijanamrata]

First my serious objections to a scholar from South Africa calling #Tibet Xizang! She is using this term used by Chinese to rename a country that has been in existence and has a distinct culture and language for thousands of years! Second, when will people like Lloyd Kuveya realise that they are supporting the propaganda of an autocratic regime and ignoring the millions of people who have been colonised! @tibet_policy @freetibetorg @DalaiLama @SikyongPTsering

Wang Junzheng the #CCP's Party Secretary in the #Tibet Autonomous Region visited #Mongolia & #SouthKorea (Sept 22-28). Both countries have a considerable percentage of Buddhist population
In July, the King of #Bhutan Jigme KNW visited Mongolia.
Religious(Buddhist) diplomacy?

The #Chinese government forcefully shut down Gangjong Sherig Norbu School, a highly reputed 30-year-old Tibetan private school in Golog, Qinghai Province. A heartbreaking video from Tibet shows students in tears at the closing ceremony held earlier this morning.

Colonial #China forcefully closes down a Tibetan school in Golog, Amdo, #Tibet.

recognizes the TAR and other areas of Tibet as part of China as opposed to what was originally proposed in the bill. What led to this change? What was that hooba-hoo of delegation about? Did we become a pawn (again)?

There was so much hope placed on the Tibet Resolve Act. Tibetans waited anxiously and earnestly for it to get signed by President Biden. But in reality, when it was signed today, the hope was out to be empty! The U.S.A. has NOT changed its stand, it still

This article I wrote for the @Diplomat_APAC sometime ago discusses the #CCP regime's insecurity concerning Tibetan monks & nuns. Xi Jinping always met monks/nuns during his visits to Tibet. This time is no different in Amdo @Tsongkha Monas

@Diplomat_APAC https://t.co/AQzWeCeSKW

[Apa @lhamoa8]

Tibetan monks & nuns are a big source of insecurity for the #CCP regime. They fear them for their loyalty, reverence and unshakeable belief in the #DalaiLama, & Tibetan Buddhism, & perceive them as a unifying force for common #Tibetans.

[Michael McCaul @RepMcCaul]

My meeting with the Dalai Lama last week clearly rattled Xi Jinping. He immediately ran to Tibet for a photo op to counter the message our visit sent — that democracy and freedom of religion will always prevail over oppression and autocracy.

[Rep. Jim McGovern @RepMcGovern]

NEWS: Today, I joined a bipartisan Congressional delegation to meet with His Holiness, the Dalai Lama in Dharamshala, India.

In our meeting, we reaffirmed our strong & unwavering commitment to the people of Tibet.

other governments in multilateral efforts toward the goal of a negotiated agreement on Tibet.

President @POTUS @JoeBiden is expected to sign the bill soon.

[Apa @lhamoa8]

The Resolve Tibet Act enhances U.S. support for Tibet— empowering State Department officials to actively and directly counter disinformation about Tibet from the Chinese government, rejecting false claims that Tibet has been part of China since “ancient times,” pushing for
