According to a Chinese source, between 1964 and 1968, the U.S. provided 1.735 million dollars to the Dalai Lama’s group each year.[14] In October 1998, The Dalai Lama’s administration stated that it had received US$1.7 million a year during the 1960s from the Central Intelligence Agency.[15]
In 2002, the Tibetan Policy Act of 2002 was passed in the U.S.[16][17] In 2016, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) awarded a grant of US$23 million to CTA.[18]
In 2017, U.S. president Donald Trump proposed to stop aid to the CTA in 2018.[19] Trump’s proposal was criticised heavily by members of the Democratic Party like Nancy Pelosi,[19] and co-chair of the bipartisan Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission, Jim McGovern.[20] In February 2020, at the annual National Prayer Breakfast, Pelosi prayed as Trump attended; “Let us pray for the Panchen Lama and all the Tibetan Buddhists in prison in China or missing for following their faith”.[21]
