BEIJING, China (AP) -- Radio broadcaster and Tibetan activists have reported that fresh protests broke out in the Tibetan capital Lhasa as foreign diplomats wrapped up a tightly controlled visit organized by Beijing.

Citing unnamed witnesses in the city, she said the situation calmed down after a few hours. The U.S.-funded broadcaster Radio Free Asia reported several hundred people took part in the protests. Ramoche was the original site of monk-led demonstrations that began peacefully on March 10, the anniversary of a failed 1959 uprising against Chinese rule, but erupted in violence days later. The Chinese government says 22 people died, while Tibetans abroad put the toll at 140. The unrest was a public relations disaster for communist leaders, who want to use the upcoming Beijing Olympics to showcase China as a prosperous, stable society.

The descriptions of new protests could not be independently confirmed and China issued no immediate response. An American Embassy spokeswoman said she had no information on any protests. A Japanese diplomat, Mitsuhiro Wada, said, "No," when asked at the Beijing airport whether he saw any protests. Beijing is trying to enforce calm in Tibet and buttress its claim that the most violent anti-Chinese protests since 1989 were incited by forces linked to the Dalai Lama.

"The delegation was not permitted to move about independently in Lhasa, and was unable to hold unsupervised conversations with local residents," the statement said. It gave no other details but repeated Washington's appeal to China to show restraint. The British Embassy and the European Union mission in Beijing had no immediate comment.  n Katmandu, police say 200 Tibetan exiles and monks have tried to storm the Chinese Embassy visa office in Nepal's capital.

会员大米翻译：北京，中国。 据广播公司和西藏激进分子报导，在外国外交官结束了一个由北京举办的受到严格控制的访问的同时，新的抗议活动在西藏首府拉萨爆发了。 以华盛顿为基地的针对西藏的国际运动的成员Kate Saunders说一场示威周六下午发生在小昭寺并发展到有很多人参与。引用一位该城市的匿名的目击者的话，她说情况在几个小时后平息下来。 据美国资助的广播公司“自由亚洲”报导，几百人参与了这次抗议活动。 小昭寺是和尚在3月10日，1959年反抗中国统治失败的周年纪念的日子，开始发动和平的示威的地方。但在几天后爆发了暴力事件。中国政府声称有22人丧生，但西藏流亡政府认定死亡人数达140人。 这动乱对想用即将到来的北京奥运会来展示中国是一个繁荣稳定的社会的共产党领导人来说是一个公共关系灾难。 新动乱的报导出现的时间是在一个由15位来自美国、日本和欧洲的外交官组成的访问团刚结束在西藏两天的访问后回到北京。 新抗议活动的描述无法得到完全的确认，而中国也没有直接的反应。 一个美国大使馆的发言人说她得到没有任何关于任何抗议活动的信息。当在北京机场被问到是否有看到任何抗议活动时，日本外交官Mitsuhiro Wada说：“没有。” 北京正尝试平息在西藏的自1989年以来最猛烈的被与dl喇嘛相关的力量煽动的反中国抗议活动并维持西藏的稳定。 美国大使在一个简短的声明里说，在拉萨的的访问中，外交官们与被中国当局挑选出来的人会面，而中国官员一直陪伴着他们。 “代表团不允许在拉萨自主地外出，也无法和当地居民进行无人监督的对话。”在声明里说到。声明除了再次声明华盛顿要求中国保持克制的要求外没有给出任何详细资料。 在北京的英国大使和欧盟使团没有任何直接评论。 在加德满都，警察说200个西藏流亡人士和和尚尝试攻击在尼泊尔首都的中国大使馆签证办公室。警察通过用竹棍打他们阻止了他们。 大约130个抗议者被逮捕，一些示威者和警察在混战中受伤。周日的抗议活动是在尼泊尔的西藏和尚和流亡者反对最近发生在西藏的中国当局的镇压的最近的一个活动。 尼泊尔声明它不会允许任何针对包括中国在内的“友好国家”的抗议活动。
