[2 February 2010] The ninth round of talks is over. The Dalai Lama’s envoys have returned to Dharamsala, where Special Envoy Lodi Gyari issued a reasonable and constructive statement. In contrast, in Beijing, Zhu Weiqun, executive deputy head of the Communist Party's United Front Work Department, the body that “engages” with the envoys, held a news conference where he adopted a tone of uncompromising rhetoric, saying relations with the Dalai Lama was China's internal affair so "outsiders have no right to voice any opinions."
