Dalai Lama is a wolf in monk\'s robes: China

Mar 07 2011,



Ahead of the third anniversary of the riots in Tibet, China today stepped up its attack against Dalai Lama vilifying him as a \"wolf in monk\'s robes\", \"double dealer\" and a \"secessionist chief\" who is seeking separation of the region from the Communist nation.



\"I had described him in those words after the March 14 riot in Lhasa in 2008 because I think he himself is a living Buddha but had done things beneath his status,\" said Chinese Communist Party chief of Tibet, Zhang Qingli said.



Zhang, is a CPC official known for pursuing tough policies in Tibet and earlier in the Muslim Uyghur majority, Xinjiang region, which also witnessed riots in 2009.



Dalai Lama is a \"wolf in monk\'s robes\" Party chief of Tibet, Zhang said accusing him of seeking separation of Tibet from China.



The renewed attack on Dalai Lama came ahead of third anniversary of the riots in Tibetan provincial capital Lhasa left 18 people dead and nearly 400 wounded.





The riots were attributed to resentment of Tibetans, against the increasing settlement of the mainland Chinese in the Tibetan region.



Zhang said it was late Chinese Premier Zhou Enlai who first described the Dalai Lama as \"wolf in monk\'s robes\" after



China \"foiled an armed rebellion staged\" by him and his



supporters in 1959.



The Dalai Lama then fled to India and created the self-declared \"Tibetan government-in-exile\", he said.



\"I used Premier Zhou\'s words to say that I object to double-dealer and ensure a correct understanding of the fact,\" he said.
