US Ambassador Sergio Gor to Meet Dalai Lama in Leh Amid Sensitive Regional Context
United States Ambassador to India Sergio Gor is scheduled to meet the Dalai Lama on August 21 in Leh, Ladakh, during his visit to northern India. The Dalai Lama, a Tibetan spiritual leader living in exile in India, is currently on an extended stay in Leh. The meeting highlights Washington's ongoing support for the Dalai Lama's advocacy of non-violence and cultural preservation, while Beijing opposes foreign engagements with him, viewing such interactions as interference in China's internal affairs. The meeting occurs amid sensitive US-China relations and the strategic significance of Ladakh near the disputed border.
