Penpa Tsering confirmed back-channel talks with China before Biden signed the Resolve Tibet Act supporting autonomy. Dialogues ceased after 2010 amid protests. Tsering advocates the Dalai Lama's Middle-Way for non-violent, mutually beneficial solutions, supported by US legislation and historical Tibetan status, rejecting China’s claims. The 14th Dalai Lama remains in exile in India since the 1959 uprising.
