Driru County, located in Nagchu Prefecture in the Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR), remains one of the most tightly controlled areas in Tibet, with reports of widespread restrictions on religious practice, movement, and communication. Human rights groups and Tibetan exile sources say the county has become a testing ground for Beijing’s hardline policies aimed at erasing Tibetan identity and enforcing absolute loyalty to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

In the remote, pristine highlands of Tibet, China is pushing forward with the construction of the Metok Dam on the Yarlung Tsangpo River, a project set to be the world’s largest hydroelectric facility. While the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) dresses the initiative in the language of green energy and economic progress, the reality is far more insidious. The Metok Dam is an ecological catastrophe waiting to happen, a geopolitical time bomb, and yet another attempt by Beijing to tighten its grip over Tibet and its downstream neighbors, India and Bangladesh.

China's "no-limits" partnership with Russia and its growing ties to Iran expose Beijing’s willingness to back rogue states and dictatorships for its own gain. Yet, as recent foreign affair reports from our sources points out, this fragile alliance is built on shaky ground. China props up Putin with arms, energy deals, and propaganda, yet Moscow remains an unreliable partner, bogged down in a disastrous Ukraine war.

High in the remote stretches of the Tibetan Plateau, China has made its presence felt in bold fashion, carving a colossal 600-foot-long message into the landscape. Inscribed in characters large enough to be read from space, the message reads, “Long live the Chinese Communist Party.” It is not just a symbol, but part of an extensive network of security fortifications along China’s border with Nepal, raising questions about Beijing’s growing influence over its southern neighbor.

The International Campaign for Tibet (ICT) has echoed the concerns raised by the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk, regarding the deteriorating human rights situation in Tibet. In his Global Update before the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva today, Türk explicitly mentioned Tibet, stating that he is "concerned about the impact of education policy and the restriction of freedom of expression and religion in the Tibet Autonomous Region." He further emphasized his commitment to continuing discussions on these issues with the Chinese government.

The United States is not the first democracy to confront TikTok’s risks. In 2020, India permanently banned TikTok, WeChat, and more than 50 other Chinese apps, citing national security and data privacy concerns. The Indian government declared the apps “a threat to the sovereignty and integrity of India,” pointing to their potential misuse in data mining and surveillance.

Beijing is waging a silent war, not with bombs and missiles, but through manipulation, disinformation, and psychological pressure. Its narrative: Taiwan is weak, isolated, inevitable in decline. But it miscalculates the singular force that opposes defeatism: a democratic people backed by a watchful world.

China's recent release of a white paper titled “Human Rights in Xizang in the New Era” on March 28 has sparked renewed international criticism over its policies toward Tibet, particularly in cultural, educational, and religious affairs. Presented by the State Council Information Office in Lhasa, the document seeks to highlight China's development efforts in Tibet, yet has been accused of masking ongoing human rights abuses.
