The President of the Central Tibetan Administration (CTA), Sikyong Penpa Tsering, concluded a meaningful visit to London with a final engagement at the UK Parliament on Monday, alongside a series of meetings with government officials. The parliamentary event, held at Portcullis House, was hosted by Chris Law MP, Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Tibet (APPGT), and brought together British parliamentarians, aides, Tibet supporters, and civil society figures for an in-depth dialogue on the Tibetan cause and the future of UK-Tibet relations.
In his keynote address, Sikyong Penpa Tsering outlined the CTA’s preparations to mark the 90th birthday of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, which will be commemorated globally as the Year of Compassion (July 2025 – July 2026). He reflected on the Dalai Lama’s unwavering commitment to non-violence, interfaith harmony, and peaceful resolution of conflict – universal principles that resonate across political and cultural divides in an increasingly turbulent world.
