Joe Biden Vows to Meet Dalai Lama As President If Voted to Power

The presidential candidate of Democratic party, Joe Biden has vowed to exiled Tibetan spiritual leader His Holiness the Dalai Lama as a president if voted to power. While criticizing President Trump for turning a blind eye on Tibetans, Biden promised that his administration will stand up to them and sanction Chinese officials responsible for abuses in Tibet.

Xi Jinping’s recent announcement to tighten its grip over Tibet was slammed by a determined Joe Biden. The US Presidential candidate vowed that his administration will sanction Chinese officials responsible for human rights abuses in Tibet. He further told that they will step up support for the Tibetan people by expanding Tibetan language services.

“My administration will sanction Chinese officials responsible for human rights abuses in Tibet, and step up support for the Tibetan people, including by expanding Tibetan language services at Radio Free Asia and Voice of America to get information from the outside world into Tibet,” Biden said.

Biden also vowed that as president he will meet with His Holiness the Dalai Lama, appoint a new Special Coordinator for Tibetan Issues, and insist that the Chinese government restore access to Tibet for US citizens, including our diplomats and journalists. He also slammed President Trump for not meeting with His Holiness the Dalai Lama during his tenure.

“Once again, the silence from President Trump has been deafening, as he focuses instead on his empty trade deal with Beijing and protecting his ‘very good friendship’ with Chinese President Xi Jinping. It’s disgraceful, though not surprising, that Trump is the first American president in three decades who has not met or spoken with His Holiness the Dalai Lama,” he added.
