Borgerforslag om verbalnoten til Kina
Annuller regeringens verbalnote om Tibet!Underskriv borgerforslaget her:Den 9. december 2009 anerkendte den danske regering for første gang Tibet som en del af Kina. Det skete gennem en såkaldt verbalnote, der også "modsatte sig” Tibets uafhængighed.Tibet har en historie, der går længere tilbage end Danmarks. Kina besatte Tibet ulovligt i 1950 og holder i dag landet i et jerngreb.Verbalnoten er i strid med folkeretten og med Danmarks forpligtelser og interesser. Den krænker desuden tibetanernes selvbestemmelsesret og modvirker en forhandlingsløsning. Læs uddybningen i selve forslaget.Støttekomiteen for Tibet forsøger nu at få Folketinget til at annullere verbalnoten. Det gør vi gennem dette borgerforslag. Vi håber, at du vil underskrive det og bede dine venner gøre det samme!Læs mere om verbalnoten her: http://www.tibetkomite.dk/verbalnoten-om-tibet -
