"This motion for a resolution makes points with which we disagree and is based on assumptions that do not strictly correspond with reality. The majority in Parliament implicitly continue to refer to Tibet as a territory occupied by China, when the powers instigating and supporting separatist movements in this autonomous region are undermining the territorial integrity of the People’s Republic of China. It is worth remembering that Tibet has been united, to varying degrees, with China since the 13th century, and that at the time of the Chinese Revolution in 1949, Tibet was ruled by a feudal regime in which the majority of the population consisted of serfs and slaves, based heavily on the land and subsistence farming. Moreover, in 1959 a separatist group led by the Dalai Lama launched an armed rebellion to defend this backward feudal serfdom. In the absence of objective or more current data, this resolution goes back to arguments that have been made in the past and makes new ones in order to continue with its confrontational and interfering approach to China’s domestic affairs, which is an affront to international law. All of this is a pretext for the majority of Parliament to interfere in China’s domestic affairs. Everything is a pretext to try to encourage destabilisation and impose the geostrategic and economic interests of the EU and its major powers."@en1
