Thirty-five years ago, on June 4, 1989, Beijing’s Tiananmen Square became the site of a state-sanctioned massacre. What began as a peaceful student-led movement calling for democracy, transparency, and basic freedoms ended in bloodshed under the treads of Chinese tanks and the gunfire of the People’s Liberation Army.

Puran Chettri is back at it again, doubling down on his conspiracy-laden claims about the Dalai Lama. His latest blog post reads like a greatest-hits compilation of Chinese propaganda—chock full of baseless allegations, obscure sources, and a narrative that sounds suspiciously familiar to anyone who’s read the CCP’s playbook. Let’s unpack Chettri’s latest diatribe and see just how far he’s strayed from reality.

China’s military ambitions in 2024 reveal a clear and alarming trajectory towards global dominance, with its expanding military capabilities, opaque budget practices, and aggressive regional posturing posing significant threats to international stability. The People’s Liberation Army (PLA) continues to prioritize becoming a "world-class military" by 2049, but the means by which Beijing seeks to achieve this reveal a calculated disregard for international norms and a growing tendency towards coercion.

In the realm of geopolitics and international relations, the Tibet-China dispute remains a focal point, particularly regarding the Dalai Lama's role and influence. Puran Chettri's article titled "The Dalai Lama’s Trip to the US is to Prepare for the Transfer of Assets and the Recognition of the 15th Dalai Lama" which was published on Storify (website) is a deeply misleading piece, laced with speculative claims, and unsubstantiated narratives. This article aims to reveal Mr. Chettri’s misleading assertions, expose the underlying propaganda, and highlight how such writings serve to undermine Tibetan-Indian relations while aligning suspiciously with Chinese Communist Party (CCP) propaganda.

The recent conviction of Shujun Wang, a Chinese-American scholar turned spy, is not merely a footnote in the annals of espionage but a stark illustration of a much larger, more nefarious operation: the global surveillance and influence network orchestrated by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Wang’s double life, meticulously engineered by Beijing’s Ministry of State Security (MSS), is emblematic of the CCP’s broader strategy to infiltrate and control global narratives, stifle dissent, and maintain its authoritarian grip on power.

On May 17, 1995, the Chinese government abducted a six-year-old Tibetan boy, Gedhun Choekyi Nyima, just three days after His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama officially recognized him as the 11th Panchen Lama—the second-highest spiritual authority in Tibetan Buddhism. Since that day, he has not been seen in public. Tomorrow marks 30 years of his disappearance, and still, the world waits for answers.
