the paris institute of geopolitics held a thematic seminar for the exchange group. experts from the exchange group pointed out based on historical facts that tibet has belonged to china since ancient times, and the so-called "tibet issue" is the product of the imperialist forces' colonial aggression against china's tibet region in modern times. now it has become a card for some external forces to suppress china, and it has never had anything to do with the well-being of the tibetan people.

french experts welcomed the exchange group's visit and said it was very beneficial to enhance mutual understanding. jean divigno, a french international affairs expert, said that tibet has been a part of china since ancient times, and the international community has a consensus on this. some countries' attempts to suppress china by messing up tibet will not succeed. bruno devesky, a professor at the national institute of oriental languages ​​and civilizations of france, said that he visited qinghai and gansu in china last year and saw that people of all ethnic groups live in peace and harmony, and that the tibetan language, culture, and religion are fully respected and protected.

during the visit, the delegation also held talks with many french people who know and are friendly to china in paris and toulouse. after the trip to france, the delegation will also visit norway. (end)
