Tibet-India Treaty - Tibet-India Treaty

Japanese: チベット・インド条約 - チベットインドじょうやく
Tibet-India Treaty - Tibet-India Treaty
It is also called the Treaty of Lhasa or the British-Turkish Treaty. The Treaty of Sikkim (1890) gave Britain a foothold in Tibet, but the Tibetan side's hardline stance prevented the treaty from being implemented smoothly, while Russia was also actively trying to approach Tibet. Britain (especially the Indian government) felt increasingly alarmed by this situation and sent Younghusband to march to Lhasa. As a result, the Tibet-India Treaty was signed with the Tibetan side in 1904, incorporating Tibet into its sphere of influence. Although Britain's position in Tibet was somewhat weakened by the establishment of the Anglo-Russian Entente in 1907, after the signing of this treaty Britain had a strong influence on the Tibetan issue.

Japanese:
ラサ条約,英蔵条約ともいう。イギリスはシッキム条約(1890)によりチベット進出へ足がかりを得たが,チベット側の強硬な姿勢で条約は円滑に運用されず,一方ロシアも盛んにチベットへ接近を試みていた。このような状況に対しイギリス(とくにインド政庁)は危機感を深め,ヤングハズバンドを送りラサへ進軍させた。この結果1904年チベット側とチベット・インド条約を結び,チベットをその勢力範囲に組み込んだ。07年の英露協商成立によって,イギリスのチベットでの地位は幾分後退するものの,この条約締結以降イギリスはチベット問題に強い影響力をもつこととなった。
