Today (13th), Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin presided over a regular press conference. A reporter asked, according to Indian media reports, China and India had a conflict in the border area a few days ago. According to Indian side, people on both sides were slightly injured. Wang Wenbin said that as far as we know, the current border situation between China and India is generally stable.
Wang Wenbin pointed out that China and India have always maintained smooth communication on border issues through diplomatic and military channels. He hoped that India would go with China, conscientiously implement the important consensus reached by the leaders of the two countries, strictly abide by the spirit of the relevant agreements and agreements signed by the two sides, and jointly maintain peace and tranquility in the China-India border area. He mentioned, "As for the specific issues you mentioned, it is recommended to ask the relevant competent authorities."
In June 2020, soldiers of China and India clashed in the Galwan Valley; at the end of August, the border dispute between the two sides broke out again. On September 7, India illegally crossed the border on the south bank of Bangong Lake, and even fired a gun to threaten China's border guards, unilaterally violating the "Agreement to not use firearms in border areas" reached by China and India.
