Tibetans hail new US legislationBy Tenzing DhamdulUS President Joe Biden signed the Promoting a Resolution to the Tibet-China Dispute Act, also known as the Resolve Tibet Act, into law on July 12. However, he made sure to note in his signed statement that the US recognizes Tibet (as referenced in the act) as part of the People’s Republic of China (PRC). Tibetans throughout the world welcomed the act and celebrated it. The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs denounced the US for its backing of Tibet even before the Resolve Tibet Act was signed into law. The US law on Tibet comes at a time when there are growing ties between the Tibetans and Taiwan.
