Thank you, Chair.
Thank you, Dr. Sangay, for joining us at this late hour where you are. It's a pleasure to meet you in this way.
I was very interested in your idea of a solution involving dialogue between your organization or the Tibetan people and the Government of China. It seems to me that you're looking at the 17-point agreement, not necessarily as a blueprint but at least as a model that was attempted and agreed upon by both sides. It involved autonomy for Tibet, but it also stipulated that Tibetans recognize Chinese sovereignty over Tibet, etc. That is the model, like the one country, two systems that you talked about, which has been been in Hong Kong since 1997.
The idea that you call the “middle way” seems a direction towards a solution. Is there any support for that? You're suggesting that Canada should perhaps adopt that formally or support that. Is there support for that from other countries at the moment, or is it something that you're working on as part of your ongoing interactions internationally?
