    Updated statement from the Dali Lama:

    His Holiness the Dalai Lama's Response to a Question about Refugees

    September 17, 2018

    Recent reporting of His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s views on refugees has been taken out of context.

    Kindly see His Holiness’s response to a question about refugees during his public talk in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, on 16 September 2018.

    Answer:

    "When refugees from other countries have come to Europe, it’s wonderful that Germany and other European countries have given them help. However, I think that most of those refugees think of their own lands as home, but just now there is lots of killing, bullying and suffering there. That’s why they escaped.

    So, in the short term, European countries should provide them with shelter, and should particularly provide children with facilities for education and training, including mechanical training, for the young people. The aim is that they should eventually be able to return to rebuild their own countries. That has been my view right from the beginning.

    "For example, we Tibetans took shelter in India, but most Tibetans want to return to Tibet when the situation there has changed. Each country has its own culture, language, way of life, and it is better for people to live in their own country. That is my view."

    Limited number… OK. But whole Europe eventually become Muslim country? Impossible. Or African country. Also impossible… They themselves, I think better to their own land. Better. Keep Europe for Europeans.

    He also said if the next Dalai Lama is female, she should be hot.

    Vaidyanathan also asked the Dalai Lama about a statement he made in 2015, that a female Dalai Lama “must be attractive. Otherwise it’s not much use.” When Vaidyanathan cited the quote, the Dalai Lama laughed, “Yes.” He then doubled down on his remarks.


    “If female Dalai Lama comes, then she should be more attractive. If female Dalai Lama,” he pantomimed unattractiveness by scrunching up his face, “Oh, oh… Then people, I think prefer not see her, that face.”
