New Tibetan Prez Says, Open To Reaching Out To China To Solve Dispute

Penpa Tsering took oath as the President of the government-in-exile of Tibet on May 27 in Dharmsala. After sworn as Sikyong, Penpa said that he will reach out to the Chinese government for a mutually beneficial agreement on the long-standing dispute. Penpa added that China’s May 21 issued white paper had nothing new on Tibet. Notably, rejecting the Tibetan government-in-exile, China has not engaged in Sino-Tibet dialogues since 2010.
