Dalai Lama's envoy details Tibetan proposals at China talks
"The Central Government's attitude is serious, honest and sincere," Qin said. "We hope the Dalai side will also exert sincerity with concrete actions, to truly stop separatist activities, stop plotting and provoking violent actions, and stop disrupting the Beijing Olympics so as to create the condition for further contacts."
The March demonstrations turned violent and sparked a security crackdown. The Chinese response spurred demonstrations that disrupted the Olympic torch's worldwide relay during several international stops.
The envoy did not give specifics about the proposals both sides made at the talks. But he said the Tibetan side called for the release of people detained following the March unrest and for authorities to allow visitors, including journalists, into Tibet. The Himalayan region has been largely sealed since the recent violence broke out.
The Tibetan side also pressed Chinese officials for an end to Beijing's "patriotic re-education" campaign in the region, which forces monks to denounce the Dalai Lama.
But it was far from clear that the Chinese were ready to listen, Gyrai said.
"The Chinese did not give any assurances. They strongly defended their views," he told reporters in Dharmsala, the seat of the Tibetan governmen-in-exile.
