Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesman Zhao Lijian on Wednesday told newsmen that Beijing would allow no foreign interference in Tibetan affairs.

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, cited what he called human rights abuses by the Chinese government in Tibetan areas.

On Tuesday, Pompeo said the U.S. would restrict visas for some Chinese officials because Beijing obstructs travel to the region by U.S. diplomats, journalists and tourists.
