India-china Border Conflict

In a significant diplomatic breakthrough four years after the Galwan Valley clash, India and China have reached a patrolling arrangement along the Line of Actual Control.

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Monday ruled out any role for a third party in India's border dispute with China, saying the two neighbours have an issue and it is for them to find a way out.

PM Modi should be concerned about the souring of ties with China, with whom India shares a 2,000-mile border and 3,000 years of cultural and trade ties.

A day after Union Minister Rajnath Singh's strong message to China during the first meeting of defence ministers of the two nations since the Galwan incident, his Chinese counterpart today called for "normalized management" of differences.

Expanded military postures by both India and China along the disputed border elevate the risk of armed confrontation between the two nuclear powers, according to the Annual Threat Assessment of the US Intelligence Community.

Chinese activities and influence in India's extended neighbourhood have grown increasingly with the sole purpose of keeping New Delhi constrained and occupied in facing the resultant challenges.

China's new Foreign Minister Qin Gang, in an op-ed piece for US-based magazine, The National Interest, has indicated that Beijing seeks to improve ties with New Delhi.

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi, on Sunday, said that China is ready to work with India through steady and sound growth of the relations, according to the Chinese Foreign Ministry website.

China never views India as a strategic rival or strategic competitor, Chinese Ambassador to Bangladesh Li Jiming has said.

Addressing the 12th Delhi Dialogue in the presence of many foreign ministers of ASEAN countries, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said that the state of the border will be reflected on the state of the Sino-India relationship.

China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi arrived in New Delhi for talks on Friday, the highest-level meetings since border clashes two years ago strained diplomatic ties between the nuclear-armed Asian giants.

Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Friday alleged that the country's national security is "unpardonably compromised" as the government does not have a strategy on China.

Serious armed conflict with India is not in China's best interest at a global level, Air Chief Marshal RKS Bhadauria told news agency ANI on Tuesday, as he discussed months of tension between the two countries following violence at the Ladakh border

India and China have readied a three-phase plan for disengagement in eastern Ladakh where the two sides have been in a stand-off since May this year, senior government sources have said.

Chief of Defence Staff General Bipin Rawat warned today that a "larger conflict" with China cannot be ruled out if border confrontations and unprovoked military actions spiraled. General Rawat also said China and Pakistan acting in collusion meant an omnipresent danger of regional instability with potential for escalation.
