Isn't politics again?

Here we are, the Foreign Secretary of UK - David Miliband on behave of the UK government has officially recognized China's sovereignty over Tibet (aka 西藏自治区 in Chinese),news article from Telegragh.

Interesting enough, a sovereign country's "internal affair" needs a foreign country with hundreds of years of colonization, black slavery and opium trafficking (forget Opium War already?) to recognize.

As much the recognization is a political stunt as Dalai Lama is a politician rather than a spiritual leader. For the sake of self-interest who truly believes Dalai Lama is a spiritual leader besides those stupid Hollywood celebrities.
