Russia’s Foreign Ministry Doesn’t Recommend Tibet Trips
The RF Foreign Ministry has recommended to the Russians to avoid the trips to Tibet, RIA Novosti reported. The diplomats expect China’s authorities to handle the violence in the region.
Sixteen have been killed during the riots in Tibet, according to official data. The death toll has reached at least 80, according to exiled government of Tibet.
The riots began in Tibet’s capital Lhasa March 11. They were caused by the Buddhist Monks’ rallies dedicated to the 49th anniversary of Tibet’s revolt against China's People's Liberation Army.
