Beijing, Dec. 7 - Chinese Vice Foreign Minister He Yafei was ordered to 7 on the evening summoned the French ambassador to China and the Soviet Union, French President Nicolas Sarkozy met with the Dalai Lama a few days ago in Poland made solemn representations.

Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao said in response to a reporter's question, also expressed on this side of the law firm opposition and strong resentment.
Sarkozy create a bad precedent
He Yafei said that on December 6, President Sarkozy despite strong opposition from the Chinese people and China's repeated solemn representations, insisted on by the President of France and the European Union rotating presidency of the dual role of the Dalai Lama met, and grossly interfere in China's internal affairs and seriously damaged the Chinese side Core interests, has severely hurt the feelings of the Chinese people and undermined Sino-French and the political foundation of Sino-EU relations, the Chinese government expresses its firm opposition and strong protests.
President Sarkozy referred to the public as the so-called EU presidency, as well as the obligation to meet with the EU flag at the scene, is the French side of its wrong practice on the European Union, created a bad precedent. These erroneous practices that harm China and France established diplomatic relations 45 years of hard-won political mutual trust and comprehensive cooperation and good prospects for the serious consequences can only be held fully responsible for the French side.
We urge the law in order to relations between the two countries and two peoples interest at heart, the real importance of China's solemn stance and legitimate concerns, fully aware of the Dalai Lama met with President Sarkozy on bilateral relations and Sino-EU relations damage caused, in the Tibet issue and take practical actions to correct the error.
China and France will damage Sino-EU relations
Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao on the 7th Dalai Lama met with the leaders of France on answering a reporter's question said that the French side of the wrong actions and grossly interfere in China's internal affairs, the Chinese government expressed strong dissatisfaction and resolute opposition.
Liu pointed out that in the near future, the Chinese side on many occasions to Xiaoyilihai France, China and France in order to request law, the overall situation of Sino-EU relations and properly handle the issue of Tibet, China and France, the normal development of Sino-EU relations to create the necessary atmosphere And conditions. Unfortunately, the leaders of France in relation to China's core interests of the major issues, act on the bilateral relations between China and France may cause serious damage. Happen, it is the Chinese do not want to see, I believe the overwhelming majority is committed to Sino-French, Sino-EU friendship and the cause of all walks of life who does not want to see. The French side should bear full responsibility.
Liu Jianchao said, I would like to reiterate that China has always attached importance to Sino-French relations. China urges France to effectively position the Chinese side attaches great importance and concern to adopt the right approach, and take concrete actions to correct the error so that the Sino-French relations continue to be healthy and stable development.
French leaders should show political wisdom
French President Sarkozy has repeatedly ignored China's patience and the work of the repeated solemn representations, insisted on the 6th flee with the Dalai Lama's visit to Europe to meet this very ill-advised, seriously hurt the feelings of the Chinese people, the Sino-French relations have also caused Damage.
Tibet issue concerns China's sovereignty and territorial integrity, involving China's core interests. The French side, regardless of China's major concerns and the overall situation of Sino-French relations, in the Tibet issue, opportunistic, and the rash appears to be short-sighted.

President Sarkozy's visit to China in August this year, he stressed, as French President General Charles de Gaulle began, France has been to China as an important strategic partner and expressed his further promote bilateral relations. Still ringing in our ears, the French side of the current difficult for people to be convinced.
At present, the Sino-French relations problems of the situation, and the reason is clear that the responsibility does not lie with China. French leaders should be "based on facts and reason" and come up with the political far-sighted wisdom, honored and the overall situation of safeguarding Sino-French relations. Otherwise, the only serious injury of the Chinese people's feelings and undermined Sino-French cooperation between the two countries.
强烈抗议萨科齐会见达赖
  外交部副部长何亚非7日晚召见法国驻华大使苏和,表达坚决反对和强烈不满
  综合新华社北京12月7日电 中国外交部副部长何亚非7日晚奉命召见法国驻华大使苏和,就法国总统萨科齐日前在波兰会见达赖提出严正交涉。
当天外交部发言人刘建超在回答记者提问时也表达了对法方此举的坚决反对和强烈不满。
  萨科齐开创恶劣先例
  何亚非说,12月6日,萨科齐总统不顾中国人民的强烈反对和中方的一再严正交涉,执意以法国总统和欧盟轮值主席的双重身份会见达赖,粗暴干涉了中国内政,严重损害了中方核心利益,严重伤害了中国人民的民族感情,破坏了中法和中欧关系政治基础,中国政府对此表示坚决反对和强烈抗议。
  萨科齐总统此次公开提到其所谓作为欧盟轮值主席的义务以及会见现场的欧盟旗帜,是法方将其错误做法强加于欧盟,开创了恶劣的先例。上述错误做法损害的是中法建交45年来之不易的政治互信、全面合作和良好前景,这一严重后果只能由法方来全部承担。
  我们要求法方能以两国关系大局和两国人民利益为重,真正重视中方的严正立场和合理关切,充分认识到萨科齐总统会见达赖对双边关系以及中欧关系造成的损害,在涉藏问题上采取实际行动纠正错误。
  将损害中法中欧关系
  外交部发言人刘建超7日就法国领导人会见达赖答记者问时也表示,法方的错误行动粗暴干涉了中国内政,中国政府对此表示坚决反对和强烈不满。
  刘建超指出,近期以来,中方多次向法方晓以利害,要求法方能以中法、中欧关系大局为重,妥善处理涉藏问题,为中法、中欧关系正常发展创造必要的气氛和条件。遗憾的是,法国领导人在涉及中国核心利益的重大问题上一意孤行,对中法双边关系造成严重损害。出现这一局面,是中方不愿看到的,相信也是广大致力于中法、中欧友好事业的各界人士所不愿看到的。法方应为此承担全部责任。
  刘建超说,我愿再次重申,中方一贯重视中法关系。中方敦促法方切实重视中方立场和关切,采取正确态度,以实际行动改正错误,使中法关系能够继续健康、稳定向前发展。
  法国领导人应拿出政治智慧
  法国总统萨科齐不顾中方反复耐心的工作和多次严正交涉,6日执意同窜访欧洲的达赖喇嘛见面,此举极不明智,严重伤害了中国人民的感情,对中法关系也造成损害。
  涉藏问题事关中国的主权和领土完整,涉及中国的核心利益。法方不顾中方重大关切和中法关系大局,在涉藏问题上投机取巧,显得轻率而短见。
  萨科齐总统今年8月访华时曾强调,从戴高乐将军担任法国总统开始,法国就一直把中国作为重要战略伙伴,并表示了他进一步推动两国关系的愿望。言犹在耳,法方当前所为让人难以信服。
  目前,中法关系出现问题的局面,原因和责任显然不在中方。法国领导人应该“基于事实和理智”,拿出富有远见的政治智慧,恪守承诺,切实维护中法关系大局。否则,只能严重伤害中国人民的感情,有损中法两国合作的基础。
