国際法律家委員会（International Commission of Jurists）１９５９年の報告書
"The Question of Tibet and the Rule of Law"

「チベットは、どの点から見ても、独立国であり続け、高度に主権を有してきたのである。」

The third part of the Commission's report studies the position of Tibet in international law. The Commission feels that although, due to its peculiar history and local conditions, the international position of Tibet is difficult to appraise it is clear that Tibet has been to all intents and purposes an independent country and has enjoyed a large degree of sovereignty. The research undertaken by the Commission, the report states, clearly shows that it could be difficult for the People's Republic of China to dismiss the case by using the plea of 'domestic jurisdiction'.
