Dalai meeting interferes in internal affairs: Experts

Move 'defiance of China's state sovereignty': Tibetologists

Tibetologists said on Friday the Obama-Dalai Lama meeting was apparently "interference in China's internal affairs" and "defiance of China's state sovereignty."

Despite China's strong opposition, US President Barack Obama met Thursday with the Dalai Lama in Washington. China urged the United States early Friday morning to take concrete action toward the development of healthy bilateral ties.
