BEIJING, Aug. 21 (UPI) -- A China Daily commentary Thursday attacked the Dalai Lama for offering new ideas on the Tibetan issue through a U.S. newspaper.
The commentary, citing Nicholas Kristof's column in The New York Times published prior to the opening of the Beijing Olympics, said in the essay titled "An olive branch from the Dalai Lama," the writer also gave his opinions on the issue "with his incomplete knowledge of Beijing's policy on Tibet."
