Mr. Speaker, again I commend my good friend from California (Mr. Royce) for his comments. Over the years, both of us, as members of the Committee on International Relations, know that the issue of Tibet has always been one of those issues that we want to address forthrightly, but then there is always this idea or the response from the Chinese Government saying, well, this is really an internal affair kind of thing and, therefore, it is not any other country's business. I wonder if my good friend from California agrees with this statement being the response of our Chinese friends.
