Berlin : The head of the German-Chinese parliamentary group, Johannes Pflug called for economic sanctions against China over its security clampdown on Tibet.
One has to talk about what kind of goods should be delivered to China and how these economic ties would look like, the Social Democratic legislator told Wednesday’s edition of the Neuen Osnabruecker Zeitung newspaper.
Jung proposed a temporary export ban of hi-tech goods as well as products for the energy sector in China.
Time has come for the international community “to deal more intensely with the question of Tibet,” added the MP who rejected calls for a boycott of the Olympic Games in Beijing in the wake of the Tibetan crisis.
Pflug urged China’s government to resume official talks with Tibetan spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama.
