President Hu Jintao’s visit to Washington, D.C. comes at a time of
escalating tension between the US and China. In a phone conversation last
week between President Obama and Hu Jintao, the Chinese leader stressed the
importance of a healthier relationship between the US and China, and once
again emphasized Beijing’s position on Tibet and Taiwan. Clearly,
international support for Tibet continues to be a thorn in the side of
China’s leadership. Read more:

By mobilizing Tibetans and Tibet supporters to Washington, D.C. next week,
we can ensure the Tibet issue is front & center during Hu’s visit. Please
help spread the word!

For Rangzen,

TenDolkar
