From border to trade to Indian Ocean, there are many other areas of concern India could focus on instead of attacking China over the coronavirus pandemic.
What Trump says and what he does are two different things. There are strong reasons to believe that US’ Indo-Pacific strategy stops at the India-Pakistan border.
The practice was started after the April 2018 Wuhan summit where several steps were identified to de-escalate tensions between both the countries’ military.
The Gonggar airport in Tibet’s capital Lhasa is one of 60 dual-use airports in China, and has seen increased activity since the Doklam stand-off in 2017.
Referring to the 2017 Doklam standoff, Army vice-chief designate Lt Gen M.M. Naravane said India gave a clear signal that its Armed forces are no pushovers.
A stunted middle class may be a direct result of extreme inequality. Folks at the top don’t see teeming masses as a meaningful market, except for utilities, soap, short videos, and personal loans.
It is argued that India-Israel ties are moving from buyer–seller dynamic to one focused on joint development & manufacturing partnership, a shift 'more durable' than traditional arms sales.
Don’t blame misfortune. This is colossal incompetence and insensitivity. So bad, heads would have rolled even in the old PSU-era Indian Airlines and Air India.
india can not opt to antagonise china inspite of the border bickerings. India’s trade with china is important and US china friction dipoes not force India fully into US camp. india although is much stronger military than what it was in 1962 , India can not force an armed confrontation for obvious reasons. India will play cool as it can not afford a serious fight with china as we are no match to PLA. they can always field more troops than the usual 1:3 and PLA can field six times more than us if they plan to attack. We stand no chance against them. Nuclear arms do not matter now for the border rows unless china wants to run over Arunachal pradesh once for all as did in 1962.
The statement ” unequal Trade deficit of Rs 53 billion USD ,makes India help less” is incorrect ,fallacious and bombastic only. Half of this deficit is accounted by low grade plastic,rubber and paper items from China which India was itself making earlier.Importantly the Trade deficit gives leverage to India to armtwist China.Author obviously is ignorant or deliberately trying to obsufacate .

Raise the autonomy or even independence of Tibet.
That buffer state is a MUST for peace between two giants of nations.
Incursion of Chinese soldiers was a subtle warning from China about not joining US camp. India should work only for national interests and do not pay any attention for these sham tactics.
As usual, a no-sense article from Jyoti. What she is trying to convey is not at all clear. The skirmishes with China are a yearly usual show as snow melts and soldiers assert their understanding of the line of control.
Post Covid, India will certainly not go overtly antagonistic with China irrespective of US China spats but if actions of Modi are to go by, his line of thinking is very clear and he has demonstrated it. The trade deficit will come down drastically soon and self reliance will be the mantra especially with China. Beyond this, nothing changes in our relations with China. long live Hindi Chini Bhai Bhai!
Paragraph #3 …. China’s $13.6 trillion GDP (in 2018) contrasts significantly with India’s lowly $2.7 trillion GDP.
How incredible is this after 73 years of independence.
This is the gift to India from the Nehru-Gandhi-Vadra families after 70 years of Congress mis-rule, corruption & communal divisiveness.
This is why it is time that people of India wake up and permanently send these traitors into the electoral sunset.
It is very critical that all Indians UNITE irrespective of religion or caste and take India forward.
More than Gandhi Vadra Vajpayee etc India’s caste system and feudal mindset are pulling it back. You can’t progress with a 3000 year old political and social agenda.
Despite the rather important considerations prevailing in India-China relations the fact remains that China is the most reviled nation across the international arena at present.The Covid-19 Pandemic will continue to cause untold miseries and havoc both in terms of human lives and the functioning of the individual country economies as well as the Global economy.China is trying to repair the damage through large amounts of medical supplies to the affected countries.Yet,it is indeed a tall order.The post-Covid-19 world will haunt China for the foreseeable future.China escaped the responsibility for the SARS epidemic because its impact on the rest of the world was limited.All considered,India should be able to make some diplomatic gains,since China is very much on the defensive in a hostile international environment.
China may be guilty in this matter, but siding with a mercurial, totally unreliable and maverick Trump in this tiff will be most unwise and stupid in internationsl diplomacy stakes.
As far as the virus is concerned, it is now beyond dispute that President Trump is making a desperate effort to shift the blame for his failures to China. God be merciful but America’s toll will be well into six figures before this ends. India has its own issues with China, but Donald Trump – now trailing Joe Biden in most polls, including those commissioned by his campaign – is not the man who will pull our chestnuts out of the fire. If anything, there has been an inappropriate mixing up of foreign policy with America’s domestic politics that needs to be wound down.
