New Delhi: Raising questions on China’s growing powers, the US said that China’s border scuffle proved that the country’s aggression is not always rhetorical.

Addressing a select media briefing Wednesday, Alice G. Wells, the Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of State, Bureau of South and Central Asian Affairs, said it was an indication of China’s disturbing behaviour.

Wells, who is retiring from the post later this month, also said China’s behaviour is why “like-minded nations” are now “rallying” with each other under a handful of diplomatic groupings such as the ‘Trilateral’ (US, Japan and India) and the ‘Quadrilateral’ or ‘Quad’ (US, Japan, India and Australia).

  1. In my analysis, India, and the United States must conduct both land and maritime joint patrolling operations to contain China’s military adventurism in Asia.

  2. Do you guys smoke up and have psychedelics when you publish your articles???

    It is very evident that you don’t support the current government and its policies and you have the right to do so !!! Unfortunately most of your articles are based on malefic intent, to create religious divide and only proposing a view which is very harmful for the country in the long run, which i can understand since you guys don’t have that vision and cannot comprehend due to the amount you guys usually smoke up or rely on psychedelics to come up with your articles.

    Furthermore, at least don’t publish such articles which undermines the position of the country as whole. You selectively singled out one lady who has views which align with your and conveniently posted it. It you are so unhappy please leave the country.

    We will not stand with you if your intent is to make fun of India all over the media without any logic and just because you hate the current government
