The Tibetans are not seeking outright independence from China but "enough autonomy" for the survival of their culture, Tibetan spiritual leader Dalai Lama has said.
"Tibetans are seeking enough autonomy for Tibet to allow its culture to survive, rather than outright independence," Dalai Lama said at a news conference in Ottawa that followed his public talk attended by over 7000 people yesterday.
The exiled Tibetan spiritual leader praised Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper for balancing the human rights of Tibetans with a growing trade relationship with the booming economy of China.
