Chilean delegate Agustín Edwards addresses the Assembly:
"The Chilean government has previously understood that the Chinese Army has entered Tibet at the invitation of the Tibetan government in order to contain Chinese and Tibetan warlords there. Now we have these gentlemen who claim the Chinese Army is actively invading and occupying their country. Until today I have heard no statements before this body requesting the withdrawal of Chinese military assistance, so you will excuse my surprise at the suddenness of requesting peacekeeping help against the Chinese Army. The gentlemen from Tibet will excuse me for noting that this is not the proper chain of events necessary for requesting League of Nations intervention, and, to borrow a term from our English-speaking compatriots - 'smells fishy'.
"Chile therefore requests to table voting until such a time as the legitimacy of this request has been proven and the proper steps have been taken leading up to such a vote."

A point of order; Are these two monks the properly credentialed agents of the Tibetan government, with the rights to address the league on behalf of said government? Or are they private citizens who have somehow managed an audience through other means?
(It's worth remembering, that Tibet is not a member of the league from what I can tell, as well. In fact, Other than appearing seperate on the Big Map, I'm unaware of any change in the historical nonrecognition of Tibet as a sovereign state.)

I am glad to see, that the majority of the present ambassadors see this thing, as a thing that it is, namely an internal affair of China.

Good question. Who allowed them to enter the building? Bharat feels as duped by the chain of events as all the rest of the assembly.
