PREMIER Wen Jiabao said yesterday that monks setting themselves on fire in Tibetan areas in Sichuan and Gansu provinces were extreme acts that did not have popular support.
"Any attempts to incite a small number of monks to take extreme acts to undermine stability in Tibet is not in the interests of development in Tibet or the interests of Tibetans," Wen said.
"We respect and protect Tibet's ecological environment and traditional culture, respect and protect religious freedom in Tibet," Wen said, answering a question on the issue after a summit with European leaders.
Wen said Tibet was an inseparable part of China which the government has made great efforts at developing.
"Our Tibetan countrymen are an important part of China's family of ethnic groups. They are our brothers," he told reporters.
