US Congressional Delegation Arrives in India

A six-person US team that is visiting India to meet with the Dalai Lama is traveling with Pelosi. It's thrilling to see India, Pelosi remarked as she was leaving the airport. In addition to Pelosi, the Dalai Lama will be seen by members Mariannette Miller-Meeks, Nicole Malliotakis, Gregory W. Meeks, Jim McGovern, and Ami Bera, who is a member of the House Foreign Affairs Sub-Committee on Indo-Pacific.

Former US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says "...His Holiness Dalai Lama, with his message of knowledge, tradition, compassion, purity of soul and love, will live a long time and his legacy will live forever. But you, the President of China, you'll be gone and nobody will give you credit for anything."

Pelosi's Vision for International Relations

Nancy Pelosi added, "Dalai Lama would not approve of my saying that when I criticize the Chinese government, he says, let's pray for Nancy to rid her of her negative attitudes. I hope he will indulge me today to say that change is on the way. As our colleagues have said hope brings some faith and the faith of the Tibetan people in the goodness of others is what is going to make all the difference..."

China becomes enraged if an official from another nation gets in touch with him. Beijing condemns anti-China separatist actions and any country's authorities corresponding with the Dalai Lama, according to a statement made earlier this month by Liu Pengyu, the spokesperson for China's Washington Embassy.
