   "In 1954, the CIA made the first contact with Mr. Thondup in Kalimpong.  Two   
   years later, six Tibetan youths slipped across the Indian border into what was   
   then East Pakistan, now Bangladesh.  They were met by Pakistan and American   
   officials and flown in    
   an unmarked aircraft to U.S.-occupied Saipan island for military training.    
   After basic training they were parachuted back into Tibet.  This first group   
   achieved little.  Subsequent U.S. military support was meager, and its impact   
   on the rebellion was    
   marginal.  On the Chinese side, however, U.S. support led to ever greater   
   violence against Tibetans."    
      
   and...    
      
   "In 1968, in New Delhi, Mr. Thondup was ushered into Russian company by T. N.   
   Kaul,the head of India's foreign ministry and ex-ambassador to Moscow."
