US Congressional Delegation Visits 88-Year-Old Dalai Lama to Support Tibetans with New Bill

Reported about 1 year ago

Led by former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a group of US lawmakers visited the 88-year-old Dalai Lama in Dharamshala, India, ahead of his 89th birthday, bringing a new bill supporting Tibet. The 'Resolve Tibet Act' calls for reinitiating talks with the Dalai Lama, rejects China's claims on Tibet, and encourages dialogue between Beijing and Tibetan representatives. As succession concerns arise due to the Dalai Lama's age, tensions persist between Beijing's control and Tibetan autonomy aspirations.
