BEIJING, Feb. 4 (UPI) -- China Daily, in another strongly-worded attack on U.S. President Barack Obama's plan to meet the Dalai Lama, said he was bowing to domestic politics.
"It is pathetic to see" Obama is likely to "succumb to domestic politics and go ahead with a plan" to meet the Tibetan spiritual leader, the newspaper said. China accuses the Buddhist monk, living in exile in India, of trying to promote independence for Tibet.
