Since 1991, every US president has met with him.<br /> &quot;A lot of nations are adopting a policy of appeasement. Even the US government is practicing some kind of appeasement. Today, economic interests are much greater than other interests,&quot; AFP quoted Rinpoche as saying.</p> <p>He made the remark in the northern Indian hill town of Dharamsala, home of the Tibetan &quot;government-in-exile.&quot;<br /> Analysts say a meeting between Obama and the Dalai Lama before the US president's maiden trip to Beijing in November would have been sure to spark an angry response from China.</p> <p>Shen Dingli, a professor on US studies at the Institute of International Studies of Shanghai's Fudan University, agreed that Obama's decision must be out of economic and other interests that are vital to the US people.<br /> &quot;I don't think we should feel provoked if Obama chooses to see the Dalai Lama,&quot; Shen said.</p> <p>&quot;Neither should we see it as a gesture of pleasing China if Obama chooses not to see the Dalai Lama. Obama's decision is based on the interests of his own country,&quot; Shen added.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> </div> <div class="pagebreak">page:<strong><a href="../Html/200991791553-1.Html">[1]page</a>&nbsp;</strong></div> <div id="txtBottom"> <span>[<A href="javascript:doPrint()"> Printing</A>] [<A class=black href="javascript:window.close()">Closure</A>]</span> </div><!--/ txtBottom--> <div id="next" style="margin-left:20px;"> <div> <p> <span style="font-size:12px; font-weight:bold;">More Information Related to 2009 News</span></p> <ul> <xoYu_CMS_CODE:NEWS:NEWS_TOP><a title="Tibetan Buddhists greet Dissension Festival " href="../Html/2009111002739-1.Html">Tibetan Buddhists greet Dissension Festival </a><p><a title="Winter tours to Tibet to be cheaper this year " href="../Html/2009111002512-1.Html">Winter tours to Tibet to be cheaper this year </a><p><a title="Tibet tourism industry makes 2.77 bln yuan in first 3 quarters of 2010" href="../Html/200910317621-1.Html">Tibet tourism industry makes 2.77 bln yuan in first 3 quarters of 2010</a><p><a title="M3.9 earthquake shakes Saga, shigaze" href="../Html/200910317050-1.Html">M3.9 earthquake shakes Saga, shigaze</a><p><a title="Winter Senery of Kunlun Mountains " href="../Html/20091029201853-1.Html">Winter Senery of Kunlun Mountains </a><p><a title="Lamas daily life in Chode Monastery " href="../Html/20091029201147-1.Html">Lamas daily life in Chode Monastery </a><p><a title="Namco-Pangong Road open to traffic " href="../Html/20091029193950-1.Html">Namco-Pangong Road open to traffic </a><p><a title="Number of birds by Qinghai Lake rises to 140,000" href="../Html/20091029192722-1.Html">Number of birds by Qinghai Lake rises to 140,000</a><p><a title="Successful Test Flight of Kunsha Airport in Tibet" href="../Html/20091091452-1.Html">Successful Test Flight of Kunsha Airport in Tibet</a><p><a title="Peace Airport aims to boost Tibet tourism " href="../Html/2009109133-1.Html">Peace Airport aims to boost Tibet tourism </a><p><a title="Harmony in Lhasa to celebrate National holidays" href="../Html/200910394753-1.Html">Harmony in Lhasa to celebrate National holidays</a><p><a title="National Day celebrated across China with excitement" href="../Html/20091039461-1.Html">National Day celebrated across China with excitement</a><p><a title="Lhasa to promote local tours ahead of National Day holiday" href="../Html/2009918234748-1.Html">Lhasa to promote local tours ahead of National Day holiday</a><p><a title="Denba ethnic minority: from primitive society to socialism society" href="../Html/2009918234253-1.Html">Denba ethnic minority: from primitive society to socialism society</a><p><a title="Handicraft of Tibetan boots goes on" href="../Html/2009918233912-1.Html">Handicraft of Tibetan boots goes on</a><p><a title="Taste sweet watermelon from Tibet!" href="../Html/2009918233424-1.Html">Taste sweet watermelon from Tibet!</a><p><a title="The West is appeasing China: Dalai aides " href="../Html/200991791553-1.Html">The West is appeasing China: Dalai aides </a><p><a title="1st Yarlung Zampo Canyon Hiking Rally to be held in Tibet" href="../Html/200991791437-1.Html">1st Yarlung Zampo Canyon Hiking Rally to be held in Tibet</a><p><a title="Tibetan musical classics published" href="../Html/200991791324-1.Html">Tibetan musical classics published</a><p><a title="200 mln yuan for protecting Tibet grassland" href="../Html/20099179921-1.Html">200 mln yuan for protecting Tibet grassland</a><p></xoYu_CMS_CODE:NEWS:NEWS_TOP></ul> </div> </div> </div> <!--/ leftMainContent--> </div><!--/ leftMain--> <div id="rightMain"> <div id="thisformdiv"> <form action=" http://www.tibettravel.org/tibettravel/order/order_save.asp" method="post" id="thisform" name="myform" onSubmit="return check()"> <fieldset> <legend>Want a Quick Answer?</legend> <p><label for="name" accesskey="9">Name:&nbsp;</label> <input type="text" id="name" name="Fullname" tabindex="1"></p> <p> <label for="email">Email:&nbsp;</label> <input type="text" id="email" name="Email"tabindex="2"></p> <p> <label for="request">Your Request</label> <input type="text" value="3" name="type1" style="display:none" /> <input type="text" value="Quick Book" name="title" style="display:none" /> <label> <textarea name="content" id="text1" rows="3" onBlur="if (value ==''){value='Question not answered?
