A disputed Himalayan border between India and China.

In a disputed Himalayan border India and China hold the two major powers responsible for each other's past confrontations, but why this is happening and can now lead to military tension, the story is welcome inside the story Imbernard smith is walking on the roof of trouble. Both India and China claim in the region that tensions have been rising for decades and again due to the Rangitir border dispute, the highest mountain in the world, and in the first week of May, the Indian military team scrambled between Indian and Chinese troops and Attacked with stone in Pangong. 

Lake and Nakuleras Chinese state media say that Indian troops tortured Chinese territory and accused them of attempting to build defense facilities, but the Indian government says its troops were on their side, with both sides losing their Tight security has been shown to protect the President. The week they appear to make more tents on both sides and roads deteriorate within five kilometers of the Line of Actual Control separating the two armies' diplomatic relations between India and China, which tells you that Beijing is always one The dispute has been erupting as a territory, but in recent times it has been spontaneously between Playa Chinese soldiers and Indian soldiers who disagree, because of the Line of Control on UH.

 Because of this, we are firing without any quarrels, but still, there is a fear that the phlegm may be thrown off as they become more intense and all conflicts may fall on the part of China and India. The longest unchecked borders have both territorial claims and in 1962 the war of more than three and a half thousand kilometers of terrain ended without any resolution and many standoffs, then the latest 2017. A year later the Chinese and Indian leaders negotiate peace in the region xijinping and Narendra Modi again last year since October in New Delhi nest in Brahma Chellian writer and professor of policy, former advisor to India's National Security Council and China's foreign policy Leipzig Adame is a distinguished professor for the German city of Nee expert in security matters and the blooming Tonindina Summit.

 To blossom science at Indiana University he is a member of the council on foreign relations, you all welcome Brahma, I will start with you after this time why now these flare along the border is a good question chairman xijinping believes That there is a multitude of epidemics. China expanded its influential fact by telling a university that in fact, the great steps in history have always arisen from major disasters, so we are looking at Hong Kong expanding its agenda. Trying to understand Kong's local autonomy, which includes stepping into the South China Sea.

 There are two new administrative districts on the Chinese coast. Last month, ard rammed and sang a database fishing boat, now we see the border flares-up indio so happening on the Helianfrontiernids, which can be seen in a broader context. , Which Jinping is pursuing his expansionist agenda at a time when the world is witnessing an epidemic with China. What is it that China feels the world's attention has been diverted and it wants to establish strength along the Himalayan Indian border, 

I certainly disagree that I think both India and China have been epidemic so far And both are interested in maintaining peace, they deal with domestic challenges and especially looking at Beijing, saying that there are a lot of challenges for Beijing to deal with economic challenges, as well as the Important relationships that are taking a very confrontational turn with us and to name a few so it does not require another collision in um at the moment, but at the same time I do not want to see the leader of Beijing in think uh weak, if it Especially was it to pursue a time where the domestic public is concerned about the uncontrolled future of China, then it is certainly true that We need to see this in a broader range of Chinese strategic thinking and ambitions.

But I would just like to point out that there is indeed a lack of clarity on this point, given that media reports are not yet being unified by official sources And it is really speculating what has happened, so we are not sure what has happened here so let's not jump to a conclusion, why do we think we are hearing more reports of a confrontation between India and Helaya borders Why China? Now I think to a large extent because the Chinese have taken a more receptive posture and are probably examining India's capabilities and along the border, it is also something that has actually been going on for the last several years. Actually, I will get it back in 2014.

 xi Jinping visited India and in the midst of that visit there was a series of events and it is hard for me to believe that the focal commander would have taken the account of the events that took place during the President's visit to India. -Pahl, which really pulls the imagination to a breaking point, so there's actually a pattern of clutter and it's latest. And I think China has a lot to do with feeling frustrated by the global community. Dealing with the 19 epidemics, even at a moment when India is moving closer to the united states in a way and it is clearly a message from Beijing saying that you know we can save you from the problems of the border. 

When you try to reach the united states of Brahma, there has been a confrontation, before we have fistfights between the two sides, but they have always pacified in the past why it will not be quiet this time because what What is happening now is more serious than what we have seen in many years that in reality it is only a question Not mentioned, which mentioned the 2013 incarnation when President Xie Jinping arrived in New Delhi and he came with T. His encroachment now we have many such incidents which are less among Chinese and Indian troops in North Ladakh region. 

At least four of the deadlock have been caused as the Chinese have entered three kilometers above the Line of Control, so we have conflicts at many points and therefore political leadership will be needed in Beijing to end all these separate confrontations and To be able to settle and settle matters in New Delhi and pressurize that President Xi is aware of the faces that he is playing the nationalist card at home. T wants to look weak as he has redeemed the grief pain of many of his neighbors including countries in South East Asia, for example, the sinking of the avian fishing boat and Vietnam and is a friendly neighbor of China's um which many in recent weeks Was an example of. Where China has claimed to use that pandemic, but what is happening to China is very healthy. A situation that could potentially get out of control. If things do not calm down, you can see That is why the Indian side is feeling defensive from India, it is spending $ 71 billion dollars on defense. 

Last year China spent $ 261 billion on defense but these conditions of the car have calmed down there in the past that it Maybe increased do you think there is some possibility that it will increase so I mean I think the various reasons are very serious as to why we are doing this, but one of these courses as mentioned earlier There is increased activity. It is a very remote part of the world, but increasingly there are more infrastructure building and OM and military infrastructure in the border areas, so both these sides and Indians and Chinese uh develop these asset amounts. 

And are now patrolling the border with the region with warmer weather, which is the front la These create more friction between the offices that you know so many of them are resolved uh, but some of them um can obviously go out of control so I and finally I just want to point out that actually there is a lack of consensus on both sides of the line of actual control o um as it actually leads to the perception of both sides that the other side is being aggressive and they themselves are responding to pressure on the other side.
