00:00Tibet affairs are purely China's internal affairs, and the U.S. abuse of visa restrictions on Chinese officials on Tibet-related issues seriously violates international law and basic norms governing international relations.
00:14In accordance with the relevant provisions of the foreign relations law, the law, and the law on foreign sanctions of the People's Republic of China, the Chinese have decided to take corresponding visa restriction measures against the U.S. personnel who have behaved badly on Tibet-related issues.
00:30At the same time, we oppose any person from any country meddling in Tibetan affairs on the pretext of so-called human rights, religion and culture, and people with ulterior motives interfering with and destroying the peace and stability of Tibet on the pretext of visiting Tibet.
