It is a major concession considering that Dalai Lama is based in India. Same thing with Taiwan. I'm surprised that China can't see that.
I was going into
lurking mode for a while ... but you are a bright dude and I enjoy your opinions on a range of issues.
DL was "based in India" the same way Abdullah Öcalan was based in Syria ... until around 1998. On that we'll say no more because I am fundamentally favourably predisposed toward "his holiness" ...
Rest assured that he was "in India" because the CCP upper echelon
allowed him and his retinue to go there essentially out in the open ... granted, not entirely out of altruism. But Mao was "blasted" by Stalin for not machine-gunning the whole lot when he had the chance ...
But that's another topic.
So India "recognized" Tibet as a favour to herself as much as Syria booted out Öcalan as a favour to themselves. This is not to deny the historical connection
Hindustan had with historical Tibet.
On Taiwan - where is India's dog in this race? Or do you want to put a dog in this race? By all means be our guest!
I will not say much about Taiwan because the current crop of flag bearers around here generally accept Taiwan's
right to remain
indefinitely autonomous. I personally prefer Taiwanese independence. But I am an "extremist" as you know ...
Let me put it this way, what has China done to improve its relationship with India and adressing its core concerns?
.
Your core concerns, above and beyond economic health and internal dynamics that affect every state, is your relationship with Pakistan.
Even your so-called relationships with the superpowers of our day (US/Russia/EU) comes secondary.
Your relationship with the PRC is tertiary.
And the core concern with Pakistan rests in Kashmir.
This you know better than any, so why trolling on China?
Will China
object if India proposes
joint administration with Pakistan on the "Valley"?
Be a leader, not a follower.
Do you think China is "helping" Pakistan because they love Pakistan?
Just like US used Pakistan for its own interests so is China. Nothing wrong with it, unfortunately Pakistani people --talented thought they are-- suffer from weak and shortdighted leadership and that makes them vulnerable to being used by anyone.
Ms. Turner asks you: "what is luuve"? Between countries no one asks for love but assistance, kindness and mutual respect that grows out of
arranged marriages from circumstances - or Muta' if you will.
Solve Kashmir and you and your neighbour to the West would enjoy more "love" than you can get from anybody else's Muta' ...
PRC used to blame everyone but itself (still does that from time to time, such as in the case of Taiwan). But you don't have to do that.
