China asks US to respect peace efforts at borders

Author: online/app

NEW DELHI: Senior Chinese official of the Foreign Affairs Ministry on Monday asked the US to respect efforts by China and India to resolve their boundary dispute peacefully, the Press Trust of Indian news agency reported.

The official said that the two nations were wise enough to deal with the border issues after the Pentagon accused Beijing of deploying more troops along the Sino-India borders. “The Chinese side is committed to safeguard peace and tranquility of the border areas between China and India and resolving the boundary question through negotiation,” he said.

The official said this in a written response to the Indian news service about a Pentagon report alleging that Beijing has increased defence capabilities and deployed more troops along the borders with India. The US military report also warned of increasing Chinese military presence in various parts of the world.

“China and India are wise and capable enough to deal with this issue. It is hoped that other country would respect efforts made by China and India for the peaceful settlement of dispute, rather than the opposite,” the foreign ministry said.
