DHARAMSHALA, India, Mar 10 (AFP): The Dalai Lama admitted Wednesday there was 'little hope' of the current Chinese government compromising on the issue of Tibet, after years of vain attempts to win autonomy for his homeland.
Insisting that he sought no political power in Tibet, he also urged Tibetans working within the Chinese administration to visit Tibetan communities in "the free world" to get a better understanding of their aspirations.
In a speech to mark the 51st anniversary of the failed uprising against Chinese rule that prompted him to flee Tibet, the Dalai Lama said he had done everything he could to explain that his goal was Tibetan autonomy within China -- and not full independence as Beijing suspects.
