KATHMANDU: The Government of China has recalled its ambassador to Nepal Qiu Guohong, a highly placed source said. Qiu, who had taken the charge for two years and four months, pulled out from Nepal just eight months before the expiry of his three-year normal tenure.
Ambassador Qiu on Friday conveyed the news about his recall to Foreign Secretary of Nepal Dr. Madan Kumar Bhattarai, according to the source.
Sources said the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China was unsatisfied to Qiu due to his weak diplomacy to neutralise any anti-Chinese activities in Nepal.
“Beijing should be reached at this conclusion due to his weak handling efforts towards neutralising anti-Chinese activities in Nepal,” the source added.
Activities, including violent protests of the Free-Tibet Movement, which is Beijing’s utmost concern in Nepal, have been raising its southern neighbor since Qiu’s arrival to Nepal in late 2008.
An official at the Chinese Embassy also confirmed the news, denying commenting further. He is expected to return Beijing within two weeks.
