America's role in Tibet is not new, but has seen ebbs and flows from the early days of the Cold War to the present era of counteracting China's assertive rise. The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was active in the 1950s, training Tibetan rebels in Colorado and parachuting them into Tibet from a Pakistani airbase.
Besides the American beltway, China's Tibet Policy has begun to ring alarm bells among America's close allies - the EU, New Zealand, and Australia, where Tibetan civil society groups and representatives of Tibet's government in exile have become more active in amplifying their concerns.
In the new Cold War, Tibet, unlike Taiwan or the South China Sea, has hardly featured as a geopolitical hotspot in the brewing US-China competition and contestation. However, as the US-China great power tussle heats up, and contentious issues like Tibet are unearthed from the cold storage of moral activism to the frontline of policy discourse in Washington and other Western capitals, time will tell if the activism of the bipartisan bill and the EU parliamentarians bring about any dramatic change on the Tibet issue.
