Since March 10 the riots which have broken out in Lhasa, capital of the Tibet Autonomous Region, and in several Tibetan-inhabited areas in Gansu, Qinghai and Sichuan provinces, have sent shock waves in and out of the country.
This violence, in which people were injured, and shops looted and set on fire, has been organized, masterminded and incited by a certain group.
The riots of March 14, coincided with the anniversary of the so-called "Tibet uprising" in 1959. Several monks in the Lhasa riot carried flags of the "snow lion", symbol of the so-called "Tibet independence" movement. This is solid proof that the Dalai clique has never given up efforts to separate Tibet from the rest of the country.
