Supporters of the Dalai Lama in New Zealand say his meeting with the German Chancellor in Berlin has shown our Prime Minister up as a coward.
Angela Merkel this morning had an official meeting with the Tibetan religious leader, despite warnings from China that the move could harm trade ties.
Friends of Tibet chairman Thuten Kesang says Helen Clark’s refusal to meet the Dalai Lama earlier this year, now looks cowardly.
He says the Chinese threats obviously worked.
