Hegemonistic Ambitions: Tibet PM-In-Exile On China Renaming Places In India

"All the neighboring countries from Japan to Taiwan to Philippines, now they are having serious problems in the strategies," said Tibetan Prime Minister-in-Exile, Sikyong Penpa Tsering

Renaming places in Arunachal Pradesh and belligerence in Ladakh -- this is what reflects China's hegemonistic ambition and now that the US law about Tibet has been passed, it has challenged China's claim that no nation recognises Tibetan Independence, Tibetan Prime Minister-in-Exile, Sikyong Penpa Tsering told NDTV today in an exclusive interview.

Asked about the Resolve Tibet Act -- which became a law in the United States four days ago -- he said through the Act, the US government says they do not accept the Chinese narrative that Tibet has been part of China since ancient times.

"So far, the Chinese government has been saying that there is not a single country that recognises the independence of Tibet or the government in exile... 'But with this act, would the Chinese government be able to say that?" he said.
