law, offends the sovereign equality of States and the principle of non-intervention
(Article 2 of the Charter of the United Nations; UN General Assembly Resolution
2625 (XXV)), and furnishes a legal foundation for transnational repression on the
territory of EU member states.
We, the participants of the Tibet Conference in Riga, resolve:
1. To convey the warm greetings and solidarity of this conference to His Holiness
the Dalai Lama.
2. That the parliamentarians present are committed to supporting parliamentary
activities in their respective countries that strengthen friendship with the Tibetan
people and advance the protection of their rights.
3. To explore pathways for our national parliaments to adopt resolutions supporting
the Dutch-led initiative for an EU Special Representative for Tibet, and to encourage
other EU member states to back this proposal at the EU level.
4. To call on our respective governments to step up coordination with EU partners
on Tibet and human rights in China, and to report regularly to their national
parliaments on progress made.
5. To follow the lead of the European Parliament and table resolutions in our
national parliaments condemning China's Law on Promoting Ethnic Unity and
Progress, recognising it as a threat to the survival of Tibetan people and their
culture.
