India has tried to play the Tibet card, but New Delhi lacks the heft to make effective use of it. The US is a different ball game, and both Chinese and Tibetans know this.
The bill also places restrictions on new Chinese consulates in the US until a consulate has been established in Lhasa and re-authorises various provisions.
The legislation directs the US government to issue economic and visa sanctions against any Chinese official who interferes with Dalai Lama's succession.
In the deleted tweet, the Dalai Lama had said a farmer takes care of his land not out of some sentimental affection for the soil, but because his livelihood depends on it.
Bending foreign policy to serve domestic politics is proving to be costly for India. Hyping the use of the Tibetan-majority SFF against China is one such example.
Lobsang Sangay, President of the Tibetan government-in-exile, says China is doing to India and its other neighbours what it did to his country in the 1950s.
Former diplomat Phunchok Stobdan says his comments that irked Ladakh monasteries were purely made from geopolitical standpoint and 'entirely in national interest'.
Two key Ladakh monasteries have demanded an apology from Phunchok Stobdan, who questioned the Dalai Lama’s silence on border tensions and even asked if he was collaborating with China.
In The Dalai Lama: An Extraordinary Life, Alexander Norman writes about the time the Dalai Lama came to India to discuss asylum, but Nehru had already made up his mind.
Mamdani’s politics feels unusual compared to India’s current climate. He unapologetically foregrounds Muslim identity at a time when doing so in India invites scrutiny.
On 4 November 2025, NCLAT bench, comprising Chairperson Justice Ashok Bhushan and Member Arun Baroka, noted that WhatsApp and Meta are distinct legal entities.
This world is being restructured and redrawn by one man, and what’s his power? It’s not his formidable military. It’s trade. With China, it turned on him.
TS Darbari – A change in the balance of power between India and China has introduced a disequilibrium in India-China relations. The series of crises since 2013 is a result of this disequilibrium. More such crises are likely to arise not only over the boundary issue but also over China’s and India’s conflicting interests in South Asia and the Indian Ocean Region. In a similar vein, when China’s power becomes equal to or surpasses that of America during the course of the 2020s, Sino-American relations are likely to be buffeted by crises in the East and South China Seas and the Western Pacific. The rival actions and reactions of China, India and the United States – the three main actors in the Indo-Pacific – are likely to determine the pattern of the new Cold War. The key to success in this power struggle would be a strategy that mobilises national resources, fosters diplomatic and military coordination, and rallies international opinion against China’s pursuit of socialist imperialism. #TS_Darbari #Ts_Darbari_Blog #TS_Darbari_News #Ts_Darbari_Views #Ts_Darbari_Blogger #TS_Darbari_Comments #Ts_Darbari_Opinion #About_TS_Darbari #TS_Darbari_Articles #Politics #Views #Comments #who_is_TS_Darbari #About_TS_Darbari #Who_is_TS_Darbari Who is TS Darbari?

In whatever way one looks at it, the one-party Chinese govt. is an autocratic govt. where no dissent is allowed, and there must be only one culture in its one-China. Under Xi Jinping China increased its efforts to change the culture in its autonomous regions; the Mongolian culture in Inner Mongolia, the Muslim culture in Xinjiang and the Tibetan culture in Tibet. No doubt, the public there is trying to protest to which China is using only force, intimidation to suppress the uprising. In Chinese state policy there is only force, intimidation, torture; it’s a just a little better than “state-sponsored terrorism” that Pakistan uses. The USA and other western countries have ignored all inhuman Chinese traits because of China’s economic growth, but now USA, Australia have woken up to the rude truth of how dangerous China’s behavior cab be for the whole world. All surrounding countries of China like Japan, Philippines, Vietnam, Laos, Malayasia, Thailand are facing the pressure from China, but are unable to do anything. Recently China started using the same tactics against Myanmar, Bhutan, Nepal, and Kazakhstan. Only against Russia it couldn’t do anything, hence China gave up much of its claims on lands to Russia. India is a big thorn to its heart as it is responding strongly against China.

India should also listen to the views of P Stobdan. He has a point.
Maldives. Nepal. Tibet. The United States has decided to do the heavy lifting itself. India is always there to provide moral support.
