A doctoral thesis puts relations between China and Spain in check. This is the investigation of José Elías, a lawyer of Valencia what are you doing 16 years began documenting China's abuse against the Tibetan people.
“There is documented evidence of how newborns are injected with a liquid so that they die”, describe a lainformacion.com. This infanticide is only part of the documentation with which he supported his research.. Thereafter,, during 7 years has presented more evidence about the campaign of repression of the Tibetan people. “They arrest and torture anyone who expresses their support for the Dalai Lama or Buddhism. Possessing a Tibetan flag means imprisonment. Any protest is violently repressed…”, list.
The question of Tibet became the front page of the Spanish press last week after the decision of the National Court to charge the man who was until last March the president of China, Hu Jintao, as alleged responsible for the genocide perpetrated by the communist government in Tibet and to issue a search and arrest warrant for former Chinese president Jiang Zemin and his former prime minister Li Peng, among other leaders of the Chinese Communist Party, for the genocide in Tibet.

¿Why a Spanish judicial body confronts China?
The one of Tibet is a silent invasion which has now been in existence for more than fifty years in a country located thousands of kilometers from Spain. ¿why a Spanish judicial body faces the Asian giant? The nature of the case lies in the principle of universal justice by which the competence of the Spanish jurisdiction to judge crimes of genocide is established., crimes against humanity and terrorism that may be committed abroad. By virtue of this principle, as well as the international treaties ratified by the Spanish Government, many organizations and defense groups human rights have presented their complaints before the National Court, causing diplomatic crises or episodes of tension with friendly and allied countries.
¿Could this dispute lead to a confrontation between Spain and China?? “There have already been complaints” says lawyer José Elias. The Chinese Foreign Ministry summoned the Spanish ambassador in Beijing following court order to issue arrest warrants against several former senior officials for alleged genocide in Tibet. Beijing responded emphatically, showing his deep discomfort. For your part, Elías has indicated that “a judicial decision does not have to be hindered by the executive.”
The fact has not gone unnoticed in the Asian dam. a vignette, published in the Taipei Times newspaper, presents the controversy with an image of a bullfighter with a cape that reads Universal Justice. The brave bullfighter is waiting for the brave animal who explains to him “I challenge you.”, show me what you have.” This is a small sample of what China is capable of., country that never tires of repeating that it will not tolerate foreign interference in its internal affairs.
Elías shows his satisfaction with the progress of the resource. He is convinced that the Chinese government is not going to collaborate with the Spanish justice system. Even so, se queda con los positivo “el reconocimiento del horror que el pueblo tibetano ha sufrido durante más de cincuenta años".
