The border dispute between India and China is quite old. Tensions have been seen on the border between the two countries many times. Meanwhile, a big statement has come from China. On Monday, China said that the border dispute with India is complex and it will take time to resolve it. However, China also expressed its willingness to discuss the delimitation of the border and keep it peaceful.
Earlier, Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, in his meeting with Chinese counterpart Dong Jun in Qingdao on June 26, had proposed that India and China should resolve complex issues under a structured roadmap. Let us inform you that Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and Chinese Defence Minister Dong Jun held bilateral talks on the occasion of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) conference in the Chinese port city of Qingdao. During this, focus was on maintaining peace and harmony on the Line of Actual Control (LAC).
At the same time, when asked about China’s reaction to the remarks of Defense Minister Rajnath Singh, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said that I can tell you that China and India have established the Special Representative (SR) mechanism on the border question. Political parameters and guiding principles for the settlement of the China-India boundary question have been agreed upon. China’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Mao Ning said that China has maintained dialogue with India on various issues including delimitation talks and border management.
The Government is ready to maintain a peaceful atmosphere in the border areas and promote cross-border exchange and cooperation. Besides, when asked about the delay in resolving the border issue despite 23 rounds of SR-level talks, Mao said, “The border question is complicated and takes time to resolve.”
