UN Must Include Strong Language on Tibet in China Review, exiled Tibetans say

China’s Universal Periodic Review (UPR) will take place Jan 23 in Geneva. The UPR is a mechanism of the Human Rights Council to assess the human rights record of every UN member state every four to five years.

The situation in Tibet continues to show further deterioration. The Chinese government’s policy of repression is clearly aimed at eradicating the authentic and self-determined Tibetan culture, the organization says in a statement.
