《艾登备忘录》与二战末期英国对藏政策

Aden Memorandum and British Policy to Tibet in the Last Stage of World War Ⅱ

《艾登备忘录》是英国政府 194 3年制定的对藏政策。其内容延续了英国一贯主张的“宗主权”理论 ,并以“西藏自治”来要挟中国政府。古德使团依照此政策在拉萨鼓动西藏自治之后 ,英国外交部又决定反思其西藏政策 ,但遭到印度政府和印度事务部的反对。从总体来看 ,无论《艾登备忘录》的提出 ,还是英国对藏政策的波动 。

Aden Memorandum' was a policy made by British government in 1943,which not only continued its suzerainty theory persistently claimed by Britain, but also coerced Chinese government with 'Tibet autonomy'. Based on the above-mentioned policy, Gould Mission agitated for Tibet autonomy. Later, Foreign Office of British government decided to rethink profoundly its policy to Tibet, but this introspection was opposed by Indian government and Indian Office. Generally speaking, all these, whether Aden Memorandum or the undulation of British policy to Tibet, are due to the overall need of British policy to China.
