AFX News Limited China urges US to stop interfering in its affairs after Bush-Dalai Lama meeting 10.17.07, 1:22 AM ET
BEIJING (XFN-ASIA) - China said it was 'strongly resentful' of US interference in its internal affairs, after President George W. Bush met privately with the Dalai Lama.
'China is strongly resentful of this and resolutely opposes it, and has made solemn representations to the US side,' foreign ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao said, according to the official Xinhua news agency.
'We (have) seriously urged the US side to correct such wrong doings and stop interfering in China's internal affairs in any form.'
He described Tuesday's meeting between Bush and the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader as a 'gross interference in China's internal affairs.'
