China lauds great progress made in India border deal 

Wu emphasized the mutual commitment of both nations to de-escalate tensions and foster stable relations….reports Asian Lite News

The Chinese military has highlighted significant progress in implementing a border agreement with India to resolve the prolonged standoff in eastern Ladakh, which has persisted for over four years. This announcement was made by Defence Ministry spokesperson Senior Colonel Wu Qian during a media briefing on Thursday, where he described the recent meeting between Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and his Chinese counterpart Admiral Dong Jun as positive and constructive. 

Wu emphasized the mutual commitment of both nations to de-escalate tensions and foster stable relations. Referring to the meeting held in Vientiane, Laos, on the sidelines of a regional security conclave, Wu noted that both defence ministers discussed the importance of implementing the agreements reached last month and adhering to the consensus outlined by their respective top leaders. 

The spokesperson expressed optimism about the potential for improved military relations, advocating for enhanced trust and communication. “We hope the two sides can seize the opportunity and build new momentum to make further progress in military-to-military relations,” Wu said. He also called for strict adherence to the recent agreements to reduce tensions and promote mutual understanding at the border. 

India and China reached a breakthrough on October 21, agreeing on a framework for patrolling and disengagement of troops along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh. This marked a significant step toward resolving issues that had strained bilateral ties since the deadly 2020 military clash in Galwan Valley. 

The agreement was further endorsed during the Kazan meeting between Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping. Both leaders directed the revival of bilateral dialogue mechanisms, signaling efforts to normalize relations between the two nations. Wu concluded by expressing hope for a “harmonious dance” between the Indian Elephant and the Chinese Dragon, symbolising unity and progress in their relations.
