On 10 March 2026, Tibetans mark the 67th anniversary of the 1959 Tibetan National Uprising. In the official Kashag statement issued today, the Central Tibetan Administration described the day as the moment when Tibetans from the three traditional provinces, both monastic and lay, rose in Lhasa to protect the Dalai Lama and resist Chinese rule. The historical core of the day is not in dispute: in March 1959, thousands of Tibetans gathered around the Norbulingka amid fears that Chinese authorities were preparing to seize the Dalai Lama; within days he fled Tibet and later reached India, where exile institutions took shape.

In the case of the Dalai Lama, the "Epstein Library" reveals a persistent but ultimately unsuccessful attempt by a convicted felon to manufacture a relationship with one of the world's most visible moral authorities.

“Keeping Russia in the fight serves China’s interests,” said a former regional defence official. “It locks the West into a grinding war in Europe, drains resources, and delays a full strategic pivot to Asia.”

South Korea’s transformation from one of Asia’s safest countries in terms of drug abuse to a growing trafficking target has been swift and much of that shift is now being traced back to criminal networks operating out of China.

Beijing’s outrage at the Dalai Lama’s Grammy win says less about music and more about the Chinese Communist Party’s enduring fear of moral authority it cannot control.
