His Holiness. the Dalai Lama. If China wishes to be viewed by the world as a truly responsible power. it must put an immediate end to its shortsighted policies towards Tibet which are morally reprehensible. irresponsible and dangerous. Beijing cannot credibly claim that is seeks genuine reconciliation with the Tibetan people when its policies force Buddhist monks to denounce their allegiance to the Dalai Lama. deny educational and economic opportunities to Tibetans. and threaten Tibetan culture by encouraging an overwhelming influx of Han Chinese migrants into Tibetan areas. This resolution not only condemns Beijings crackdown on Tibetan protesters. it also urges China to begin to move away from its policy of repression and incitement of ethnic tensions. The resolution calls on Beijing to allow international monitors to assess the situation in Tibetan areas in China and ensure that those injured in the protest receive adequate medical treatment.
