Nepali PM assures Wen Jiabao of no-anti China activities in Nepal
(AFP) Nepal's prime minister said his government would not tolerate any anti-China demonstrations in the Himalayan nation as he met with his Chinese counterpart in Beijing, Chinese state media reported. "The Nepalese government... believes that Taiwan and Tibet are inalienable parts of the Chinese territory", Madhav Kumar Nepal told Wen Jiabao in comments reported on China's state television CCTV. Nepal "will not allow any forces to use Nepalese territory to engage in anti-China activities". Nepal's official visit to China is his first since he took office in May 2009, and he is also due to meet with President Hu Jintao on a trip aimed at strengthening ties between the two countries. Officials from both countries signed agreements on trade and exchanges, the CCTV report said.
