President Barack Obama meets with the Dalai Lama on Saturday in the Map Room of the White House.


During the 24 hours before and after Obama-Dalai meeting, China protested it for three official times and in different ways.


Hours before the Dalai Lama's arrival, the Chinese Foreign Ministry urged the White House to cancel the visit.


"We firmly oppose any foreign official to meet with the Dalai Lama in any form," Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei said in a statement posted on the ministry's website.


"We request the U.S. side to honor its serious commitment that recognizes Tibet as part of China and opposes Tibet independence," Hong said.


China's Foreign Ministry said Sunday that Vice Foreign Minister Cui Tiankai summoned Robert S. Wang, the charge d'affaires at the U.S. Embassy in Beijing, to register an official complaint over the 44-minute meeting in the White House on Saturday.


"The Chinese side pointed out that regardless of China's firm opposition and solemn representations, the U.S. side insisted on arranging for President Obama to meet the Dalai Lama at the White House," the Foreign Ministry said in a statement on its website. "This seriously interfered in China's internal affairs, hurt the feelings of the Chinese people, damaged China's core interests, and damaged China-U.S. relations. The Chinese side expressed its strong indignation and firm opposition."


China's Foreign Ministry said that the Chinese ambassador in Washington, Zhang Yesui, had lodged another formal protest with the U.S. government there following the meeting.


Ma Zhaoxu, China's Foreign Ministry spokesman, said in a separate statement: "We demand the U.S. side seriously consider China's stance, immediately adopt measures to wipe out the baneful impact, stop interfering in China's internal affairs and cease to connive and support anti-China separatist forces that seek 'Tibetan independence.' "


Although U.S. clearly knows about China's position over Dalai Lama and China lodged formal protests with the U.S. government over President Barack Obama's private meeting with the Dalai Lama, accusing Washington of "grossly" interfering in China's internal affairs and damaging bilateral relations, the meeting still was carried on, which totally indicate that between the Sino-US relationship, China is still at the defensive stage!


Jin Canrong, deputy dean of the School of International Studies at Renmin University of China, commentated that "Today's world is still lead by United States, and most countries would like to follow U.S. There are three stages in the competition of China and U.S.: strategic offensive stage, strategic stand-off stage and strategic defensive stage. Current China is still at the defensive stage, while U.S. is holding the initiative."


Jin said China's current situation is a little bit of embarrassing: on one hand, Obama's meeting with Dalai Lama seriously interfered in China's internal affairs and damaged China's core interests; on the other hand, if China decided to revenge with vehement methods, then China would pay a lot."

However, although U.S. and China have sharp opposite attitudes over Obama's meeting with Dalai Lama, some analysts still believe the episode won't cause great damage to Sino-US relationship.


Wall Street Journal says "The protests were expected as China always objects to the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader meeting foreign leaders. But they nonetheless threaten to sour the atmosphere for planned visits to China by U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton next week and Vice President Joe Biden next month."


About current Sino-US relationship, WSJ commented that "It's time to accept the continued, deep-seated mutual distrust China and the United States hold toward each other. But the real reason for Sino-U.S. discord is simple: The two countries are rivals for influence and power in Asia, and increasingly the world."
