(RTTNews) - Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama is scheduled to meet US President Barack Obama Thursday at the White House amidst objections from Beijing.
The meeting will take place in the White House Map Room and not at the Oval Office, where the US President normally meets foreign heads of state.
The Tibetan leader will also meet Secretary of State Hillary Clinton during the visit which Washington had kept at low profile apparently to play down China's concerns.
Earlier, China warned that the meeting will undermine Sino-US relations which hit a low recently over US arms sales to Taiwan and Beijing's clamp down on search giant Google.
