A high-level bipartisan U.S. delegation, comprising notable figures such as Michael McCaul and Nancy Pelosi, is slated to visit Dharamsala next week to meet with Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama.

Authoritative sources confirmed the delegation's presence in the Himalayan town on June 18 and 19, highlighting the U.S.' ongoing support for the Tibetan cause ahead of the Dalai Lama's upcoming trip to America for medical treatment.

This visit underscores Washington's commitment to resolving the Tibet issue peacefully. While the Dalai Lama advocates for genuine autonomy through dialogue, the Tibetan government-in-exile has recently opened back-channel talks with Beijing after a decade-long stall in formal negotiations.
