US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi reportedly released a statement Wednesday on the 51st anniversary of the Dalai Lama group's armed rebellion, in which she criticized the Chinese government on its Tibet policy.

In response to questions concerning the statement, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang said the statement was "finger pointing" about 皇冠体育app's internal affairs in disregard of the facts.

"We urged relevant member of the US Congress to respect the facts, discard prejudices and stop using Tibet related issues to interfere in 皇冠体育app's domestic affairs," Qin said.

He said tremendous progress has taken place in fields such as Tibet's social and economic development, human rights, as well as religious and cultural conservation.
