China and India, which had been in conflict over the border military conflict, agreed to re-establish cooperation.
According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Affairs of the two countries on the 26th, Wang Yi, a state council member in charge of China’s diplomatic affairs and foreign affairs minister S. Jaisankar, agreed to return the bilateral relations to normal on the previous day in the call.
“Last year, the situation that occurred on the border between China and India was evident,” said Wang. “Let’s take this as a lesson and lead the bilateral relationship in the right direction of mutual trust and cooperation.”
He added that the border situation has eased with the recent withdrawal of the two countries from the border Pangong. “The two countries must properly deal with the border issues, and both countries should join hands with each other and move in the big direction of development.”
Minister of Foreign Affairs of China said in response, “I want to develop relations between the two countries according to the long-term development and general trend of the bilateral relations in India.”
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of India also issued a statement that day, and both sides said they agreed to establish a hotline between foreign ministers.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of India said, “If the withdrawal is completed in all places where friction has occurred, the two sides can also consider a comprehensive reduction of the troops in the region. The two sides will work together to restore peace and tranquility.”
India and China even fought war due to border issues in 1962, but they have not established their borders and are facing the actual control line (LAC). For this reason, disputes over borders often arise.
However, China is striving to improve relations with India after the US administration Joe Biden recently announced its intention to succeed the predecessor Trump administration’s indo-Pacific strategy and other siege strategies in China.
