at the regular press conference of the ministry of foreign affairs on august 28, a reporter asked, "we have noticed that recently western media and organizations such as the new york times and human rights watch have published false information about tibet, rehashing the so-called human rights issues in tibet and claiming that china's economic development measures have destroyed the lifestyle and ecological culture of the tibetan people. some foreign politicians use this as an excuse to interfere in china's internal affairs. but at the same time, many foreign scholars and media who have visited tibet on the spot have said that the chinese central government has introduced a large number of support measures for the political and economic development of tibet, promoting the sound development of the local political, economic and social development, which is completely different from the narrative of some western media. what is the spokesperson's comment on this?

in response, spokesman lin jian said that we firmly oppose relevant politicians, media and organizations distorting facts and spreading lies.china's position on tibet-related issues is consistent and clear. tibet affairs are china's internal affairs and no external forces are allowed to interfere.for a long time, tibet's economy has continued to develop healthily, the overall social situation has been harmonious and stable, cultural traditions have been protected and promoted, and the people's living standards and quality have been greatly improved. these have been sincerely supported by the people of all ethnic groups in tibet and witnessed by the international community.

"tibet's development and progress are inseparable from the warm care of the central government and the support of the people across the country. especially under the guidance of the party's tibet governance strategy in the new era, tibet has entered a historical period of the best development, the greatest changes, and the most benefits for the people."lin jian said that this year coincides with the 30th anniversary of the national counterpart aid to tibet, and the tibet autonomous region held the "30th anniversary achievement exhibition of the national counterpart aid to tibet". we welcome more foreigners to visit tibet, take a look, understand the real tibet, and feel the development of tibet.
