Saighal, Vinod Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.

History bears witness that excessive militarization has leads to an irreversible momentum for the outbreak of hostilities. Often triggered by a minor incident, as nearly happened on India's border in early 2013. There is however potential to restore and maintain stability in the region by the coming together of like-minded countries threatened by not-so-peaceful designs of the Chinese. The key to this stability would be the perception of friendly East and Southeast Asian countries that India is in it for the long haul.
