“Invasions in history have always been cruel, bloody, they have sown death. If the invasions have never been peaceful, “The one from China to Tibet was very hard”, says Thubten Wangchen, Tibetan monk and Member of Parliament for Tibet in the European Parliament (ERRATA: Thubten Wangchen is not a member of the European Parliament for Tibet, as the original note states, but deputy for Europe in the Tibetan Parliament in Exile of Dharamsala, India. NdR House of Tibet Foundation of Barcelona). "On – he added- as due to the height it was not easy for them to invade, they entered with deception, with promises that they would help Tibetans overcome poverty. And the Tibetan government opened borders, and the Chinese came in trucks distributing clothes, food”.
Wangchen, who left his native country when he was a child, was appointed in 2011 representative of Tibet (government in exile) in the European Parliament (Ver ERRATA anterior). Resident in Barcelona since 1998, He is one of the first Spanish citizens of Tibetan origin. In Argentina, the Lama gave lectures (at the University of Salvador and in Tucumán, inter alia) and visited the Senate. In Tucumán, visited the Legislature.
– ¿What probability do you see of regaining independence??
– It is difficult for Tibet to become independent again, but we never lose hope. in 1959 we have lost our independence. The Indian government has been very kind to the Dalai Lama and to the Tibetan refugees.
