NEW DELHI - The situation between India and China in the western Himalayan region of Ladakh is fragile and dangerous, with military forces deployed very close to each other in some parts, Indian Foreign Minister S Jaishankar said on Saturday., but the situation has been calmed through rounds of diplomatic and military talks.
“The situation to my mind still remains very fragile because there are places where our deployments are very close up and in military assessment therefore quite dangerous,” Mr Jaishankar said at an India Today conclave. “We have made it very clear to the Chinese that we cannot have a breach of peace and tranquility, you can’t violate agreement and want the rest of the relationship to continue as though nothing happened. That’s just not tenable.”
Regarding India’s presidency of G-20 this year, Mr Jaishankar expressed hope that New Delhi can make the forum “more true to its global mandate”.
