Efforts and Difficulties in Domestic and Foreign Affairs:Research on the 1936 National Government's Escort of the Ninth Panchen Lama Back to Xizang and it's Negotiations with Britain
In 1936,the Ninth Panchen Lama expected to return to Xizang from Qinghai.With the support of Anglomaniac,the Kashag and People's Assembly opposed the policy of revitalizing the Reting Rinpoche inclination towards the central government,repeatedly launched attacks on the central government and resisted the escort of the Panchen Lama's guard into Xizang,which was interpreted as a military action of the Central Government against Xizang.This year,the British Embassy in China also protested against the Panchen Lama's return to Xizang under the armed escort of Central Government,which unreasonably interfered in China's internal affairs.The Executive Yuan of the Guomin Government,the Mongolian and Tibet Affairs Commission and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs did a lot of work on the specific policy of the Panchen Lama's return to Xizang,but there were differences among departments,and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was particularly weak.During this period,Huang Musong,Jiang Zhiyu and Cheng Yun made continuous suggestions and strongly supported the central armed forces to escort the Panchen Lama back to Xizang.However,the confidence of the top decision-makers was not firm.Chiang Kai-shek and others were too timid to firmly support the Panchen Lama's return to Xizang from the overall situation.And under the weak attitude of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs,the Panchen Lama's return to Xizang was delayed,so that when the Japanese full-scale invasion of China began in the following year,the National Government had no time for it,and the Panchen Lama eventually passed away in Yushu with regrets.
