CHINA-U.S.: U.S. CONGRESSMAN SAYS U.S. WILL NEVER RECOGNISE CHINA-APPOINTED DALAI LAMA

US Senator Cory Gardner (R-Colo.) on April 9, strongly rejected the Chinese government’s claim that it will decide the reincarnation of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, the exiled spiritual leader of Tibet. Gardner said “Let me be very clear: The United States Congress will never recognize a Dalai Lama that is selected by the Chinese. His Holiness has laid out [his] succession. Only then will the US follow that succession.” ” Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Colo.) said this at a hearing of the Senate Foreign Relations Asia Subcommittee, of which he is the subcommittee chairman.
