Tibetan President Penpa Tsering was in the United States on Apr 29, to meet top officials of the Biden Administration and members of the US Congress. At the same time, while addressing a press conference and responding to a question the President said that, Jawaharlal Nehru's decisions over Tibet were due to his own world vision and that he had "too much faith and confidence in China".

 

According to the NDTV reports, he further added, "I don't blame only Pandit Nehru for doing that. We understand that the national interest comes first for every nation and he did what he thought was best for India at that time."

The Tibetan President also made a statement on India's current stance on India - China relations and added that things however, have changed in India since 2014. President Tsering said, "I think India has changed his (Nehru's) policy by not repeating that Tibet is part of PRC (People's Republic of China) because India's position is that if India has to abide by the 'One China' policy, then China also has to abide by the 'One India' policy regarding Kashmir and Ladakh."
