Significantly, in contrast to its increasingly vituperative attacks on the Dalai Lama, China has not denounced (or derecognized) its Karmapa, although his flight to India signaled its failure to retain the loyalty of a supposed puppet. The Mandarin-speaking Ogyen Trinley Dorje, now 25, occasionally criticizes the Chinese government, including for its efforts “to create this ethnic conflict” in Tibet.
更值得注意的是，对达赖喇嘛百般攻击的中国政府却没有废除（或取消认可）其指派的噶玛巴，虽然多杰出走印度的行为显示出中国已无法维持一个傀儡的忠诚。说汉语的多杰如今已经25岁，偶尔也会批评中国政府，包括说它在西藏“挑起宗教冲突”。尽管如此，中国却甚少反唇相讥，这明确表明中国政府是希望他能最终回归的。
