Title Proper | India and China territorial dispute |
Language | ENG |
Author | Kanwal, Gurmeet |
Contents | China's negotiating strategy on the territorial dispute is to stall resolution of the dispute till it is in a much stronger position in terms of comprehensive national strength so that it can then dictate term. The rapidly blossoming strategic partnership between China and Pakistan is also a major cause for concern. During any future conflict with either China or Pakistan - even though the probability is low, India will have to conted with a two- front situation as each is likely to collude military with the other - a situation for which the Indian armed forces are as yet unprepared. Hence, it is in India's interest to strive for the early resolutiion of the territorial dispute with China so that India has only one major military adversary to conted with. |
