TOKYO — Foreign Minister Yoriko Kawaguchi indicated Monday that Japan has not yet decided whether to allow the Dalai Lama, Tibet’s spiritual leader, to enter Japan, despite a request from China to prevent his entry, a Japanese official said.
“Japan’s basic stance is that Tibetan issues are internal affairs for China, and Japan will deal with any visa application in line with relevant laws,” Kawaguchi was quoted as telling visiting Chinese Foreign Minister Li Zhaoxing over dinner. (Kyodo News)
