BEIJING - Senior government officials of Vietnam, Cambodia and Bangladesh have expressed their countries' support for Chinese government's measures to stablize the situation in Tibet.
"Vietnam fully supports the measures taken by China to stabilize the situation in Tibet," said Vietnamese Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Vu Dung in a meeting with Chinese ambassador to Vietnam, Hu Qianwen, on Thursday, adding that the Tibet issue is purely China's internal affairs.
The Chinese government has made great efforts for the economic developments and social progress of Tibet, and yielded tremendous achievements, said the official.
Meeting on Wednesday with Duan Jinzhu, charge d'affaires of the Chinese embassy in Cambodia, Long Visalo, secretary of state for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of Cambodia, said the incident in Lhasa, the capital city of China's Tibet autonomos region, was elaborately plotted and organized by a small group of people with ulterior motives.
Some distorted news coverages by Western media were aimed at disturbing the then ongoing sessions of the Chinese National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and the election of new Chinese leaders, as well as undermining the upcoming Beijing Olympic Games, said Long Visalo.
"The Lhasa riot is absolutely not so-called 'peaceful demonstration,' but a serious riot incident," he added.
A spokesman of the Bangladeshi Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement on Thursday, expressing Bangladesh's solidarity with China on the Tibet issue.
"All matters pertaining to Tibet are internal affairs of China, " the statement said.
Bangladesh wishes the Beijing Olympic Games great success and would not like to see the games be politicized by any organizations, he added.
