As Beijing and Tibetan envoys prepare for talks, China’s state media on Tuesday blasted the Dalai Lama saying he is ‘playing tricks’ to draw public attention and sympathy.

Sources said that criticizing the spiritual leader’s recent comments expressing doubt over usefulness of new talks.

Report said, “He is again playing the trick of retirement. It is futile for him to try to turn back the wheel of history,”

He also said, “My trust in the Chinese Government has become thinner, thinner, thinner. Suppression (in Tibet) is increasing and I cannot pretend that everything is OK”.

He said that previous rounds of talks have produced no substantive results and he is unsure whether new talks will produce any breakthroughs.

State media said, “By stressing his ‘disappointment’ over the contacts and negotiations, the Dalai Lama deliberately adopted a pathetic posture only in an attempt to draw public attention and sympathy.”

It added, “His disappointment also showed his reluctance to give up his stance to seek Tibetan independence,”

The Dalai Lama, who fled to India amid a failed uprising against Chinese rule in 1959, says he does not seek Tibet’s separation from China but wants meaningful autonomy that would ensure the survival of the Himalayan region’s unique Buddhist culture.
