Quote:
"We want to reach out to all -- across all countries -- to show them how Chinese leadership is working. They are not talking to us or discussing. They have only one solution to beat, torture and to kill Tibetan protestors ... We have to try to prove that Xi cannot stop Tibetans who are moving beyond fear and challenging the Chinese rule in Tibet. The joke is on him and we are challenging him to resolve the Tibet crisis now or Tibet will soon become your biggest headache."
