- Description
The cartoon shows American President Barack Obama and the Dalai Lama sitting on boxes in a pantry surrounded by containers of food. The president says 'I haven't caved into Chinese pressure. I decided to meet His Holiness in the White Pantry rather than the Oval Office in case we got peckish...' In fact President Obama welcomed exiled Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama to the White House, drawing an angry reaction from China and risking further damage to strained Sino-US ties.
