An article, recently published on the website of China Tibet Information Center, urges Dalai Lama to truly give up the policy of "Tibetan independence."

The signed article, written by Yedor, analyzed the "middle way", advocated by Dalai Lama in recent years, pointing out that the so-called "middle way" actually falls short of the reality.

The Central Government has made public its views on the Dalai's "middle way" over the past 20 years, but the Dalai Lama still hates to say bye to his proposals which are "independence of Tibet" in nature, the article said.

If Dalai Lama is sincere in improving ties with the Central Government, he needs, first and foremost, to have an objective understanding of the political reality in Tibet and, on this basis, re-think his political propositions, said the article.

"Only by truly giving up his "Tibetan independence" policy, can Dalai Lama win the confidence of others and create conditions for him to do something in the interest of Tibet," the article said.

Dalai Lama has, in recent years, been telling the world he has stopped seeking "Tibetan independence" and turned toward a "middle way". By this, he says, he means "high-level autonomy" or "real autonomy" in Tibet and other Tibetan-inhabited areas within the framework of the China's Constitution.

What Dalai Lama said sounds reasonable at first glance; and he has given up the "independence of Tibet" and turns to work for the interest of the Tibetans.

However, if one takes a closer look at the background of what Dalai Lama has put forth regarding this "middle way", its major contents and Dalai Lama's explanation, and then compares this with China's Constitution, one will instantly find nothing new, only old wine in a new bottle, the article said.

Dalai Lama is talking about seeking a way out "within the framework of the Chinese Constitution" but, at the same time, he sticks to his principles that run counter to the China's Constitution, the article said.
