European Parliament urged to appoint a special Tibet Coordinator

KTM- ( Kusang)-In European Parliament (EP) in Brussels, the Members of European Parliament (MEPs) held a debate on the current situation of Tibet reviewing the 2008 people's uprising on Thursday, where MEPs call EU to appoint special envoy for Tibet.
During the debate in the EU Commissioner and Vice-President of the European Commission, Mr. Maros Sefcovic said: "We have real concerns about the human rights situation in Tibet, about the fact that Tibet has remained largely closed to international media, diplomats and humanitarian organisations and also about the lack of progress in talks between the representatives of the Dalai Lama and the Chinese authorities."
“Although EU supports One-China policy "The dialogue should also address the participation of all Tibetans in decision-making.
For the EU, Tibet is a human rights issue.
We have consistently passed this message on to our Chinese counterparts and listened carefully to their views, and we make every effort to understand their position in a spirit of mutual respect." he added "But human rights are universal, and the situation in Tibet is a legitimate concern for the international community, a point that we regularly make to our Chinese interlocutors."
While expressing concern over the current situation in Tibet the MEPs called for the appointment of an EU Special Envoy for Tibet, a meeting between High Representative Baroness Ashton and His Holiness the Dalai Lama and to send an investigation team to Tibet.
