Concerned over the situation, the American ambassador in Beijing Clark Randt met China's Vice Foreign Minister Zhang Yesui and urged the authorities to turn away from using force against the protestors.
"Ambassador Randt took the opportunity in a meeting with a senior Chinese official (the Vice Foreign Minister) to urge that the Chinese government, in responding to protesters, turn away from use of force or violence," State Department spokesman Sean McCormack said in his briefing at Foggy Bottom.
However, he said that Washington had not received any feedback from Ambassador Randt on any assurances by China that it will observe restraint.
"I didn't get a feedback from what Ambassador Randt heard. He did convey that urging to the Chinese government, though, in this meeting," McCormack said.
Several deaths and injuries were reported yesterday in street fighting between Chinese troops and Buddhist monks in Lhasa.
But McCormack refused to confirm reports of violence in Lhasa.
"There have been reports coming out via the media and that we have received through our embassy of violence in Lhasa. I can't confirm those reports for you as we do not have anybody on the ground at the moment, but we will be looking into those reports and to try to get as full a picture as we possibly can about what has happened and what is ongoing," he said.
USA is killing of Iraqi civilians at Haditha with total impunity. USA had killed some 504 South Vietnamese on 16 March 1968 that included men, women, children and even babies in three villages My Lai, Binh Tay and My Khe and it is called My Lai massacre The dirty slave trading Americans never considered the Vietnamese human and used to f**k Vietnamese girls and used to shoot them in the head, once the rape is over. China is following what USA did and is doing all over the world.
Good to see at least US responding to this.
