Representative Genkhang with the Deputy Mayor of Paris

Brussels: After the successful conclusion of the 22nd edition of the festival of Tibet and the Himalayan people, Representative Genkhang on Tuesday called on Jean-Luc Romero, Deputy Mayor of Paris in charge of Human Rights, integration and the fight against discrimination.

During the meeting Representative Genkhang expressed her gratitude for his continued support for His Holiness, Tibet and its people. The Representative then briefed him on the most pressing issues in Tibet including but not limited to the fate of one million Tibetan children who are forcibly separated from their families and sent to colonial-style boarding schools to be assimilated by the Chinese government.

The Deputy Mayor expressed his gravest concerns to the worsening situation in Tibet and reaffirmed his commitment to continued support for His Holiness and his people.

The two sides had friendly and constructive discussions.
His Holiness was conferred honorary citizenship by the city of Paris in 2009. The then Mayor Bertrand Delanoë honored His Holiness despite strong criticism from China.
