本刊多位记者在国外采访或工作时,都遇到过手持“雪山狮子旗”的藏独分子的活动,尤其在我领导人出访时,这样的活动有时相当猖獗。藏独分子人数并不很多,但是他们在一些政治势力支持下,利用了当地一些并不了解西藏情况的普通民众的善良、同情心和正义感。 When we interviewed or worked abroad, many journalists in our magazine had met with Tibet independence elements who held “Snow Mountain Lion Banner,” especially when my leader visited China. Such activities are sometimes quite rampant. There are not many Tibetan separatists, but with the support of some political forces, they have taken advantage of the kindness, compassion and sense of justice of ordinary local people who do not understand the situation in Tibet.
