Social Comment: There should be no western public opinion harassment on the China -India negotiation table

Author:Global Times Time:2022.07.19

On July 17th, the two -round round of military talks were held in the Indian meeting point of the Indian/Chushu meeting point in the Morto/Chushale meeting. The two parties issued a joint press release late at night on the 18th, and once again reiterated the common willingness to maintain the security and stability of the actual control line of the western section of the China -India border, and continue to closely maintain the common willingness of diplomatic and military channels to communicate and dialogue. Compared with the previous joint press release, this time, it is particularly emphasized that it will continue to explore the problem of promoting the solution to the solution of the relevant issues of the actual control line in the western section of the Sino -Indian border, which releases the continued "return warming between China and India relations. "A positive signal, the mutual trust of the two parties in solving the border issues is gradually accumulating, providing a necessary atmosphere for the effective control of border disputes between the two countries.

This round of talks is nearly four months apart. This is the longest interval between the China -India Army since the Talwan Valley conflict in 2020. The delay of the talks allowed some Western media to "diagnose" to the meeting in advance, saying that India and China have huge "asymmetric", and the differences between the two sides are "obvious" and "almost impossible to discuss the agreement." However, it turns out that China -India is fully capable of dealing with problems and differences between the two countries. The joint press release issued on the 18th is an indirect response to the harassment of American Western public opinion.

The confrontation between the China -India border has entered the third year, and such confrontations should not continue endlessly. However, complicated border issues cannot be solved "in one step", and the specific negotiation process is even more difficult and long. China and India are the ability to mobilize national power to support a large Asian country with conflict between border. The population of the two countries exceeds 2.8 billion. In the case of complex and turbulent world situations, for both parties, the friction is controlled to the lowest intensity, and the differences are sufficient to the differences. Patience is obviously more realistic than "thoroughly solving border problems", and also tests the wisdom of the two countries.

What needs to be vigilant is that the China -India border should not have cracks that allow external forces to fight wedges. Whenever the Chinese Indian officer is ready to sit at the negotiating table, there will always be a round of hype. For example, rendering "the dilemma of India", or the use of the excitement method, claiming that India "is afraid of confrontation with the superpowers". Previously, senior US officials had expressed "concerns" for the so -called "Chinese bullying India". The "important role" in the "Indo -Pacific Strategy" blew. These are the tricks of Washington's "pursuit of offensive" for New Delhi. It is a soul soup that I tried to give it down because of curbing China's geopolitical needs, but it does make some Indian elites feel a bit "floating" in the past for a period of time, even The desire to maintain the peaceful and stable border area of ​​China is misunderstood as the weakness that can be used. This is one of the important reasons for the difficulties facing Sino -Indian relations.

Therefore, India is particularly important to adhere to its strategic autonomy. Russia and Ukraine conflict calm down some Indian elites and began to rethink the national interests. Compared with the flood of nationalist emotions in the previous two years, in recent months, India has started to have more voices in the restoration of Sino -Indian relations in China. In addition, Indian Foreign Minister Su Jiesheng recently publicly refuted the statement of the Russian -Ukraine conflict with the relationship between China and India. The calmness and rationality released by this remark will be proven to be correct and conducive to the interests of the Indian national.

It is worth mentioning that although the United States and the West have adopted an attitude towards India in recent years in recent years in recent years, they still can't hide the high rush of their bones. Some American media have recently criticized India's "chaos" to China. New Delhi is unwilling to cooperate with Washington, making it easy to be "used". The article claims that India, which is "weak and socially fragile" under the leadership of Modi, "may be sandwiched between the hammer and the anvil." This remark clearly shivered the West's mind. What must be told was that India was not a barrier that was beaten at will, and China would not squeeze India's anvil.

China -India is a emerging economy dedicated to economic and social development, and the common interests of each other are far greater than differences. Although it is difficult to solve the border issues, what kind of position it is placed in that is the most in line with its national interests and the common interests of the region. This is a account that is not difficult to count.

In human history, there have never been two giant neighbors who have the same development of two giant neighbors such as China -India. Looking at the Sino -India relations, it should have a broad historical perspective beyond the Himalayas and at the same time resist the unsatisfactory public opinion in the West. Habits make China -India a partner of mutual achievements, not opponents consumed by each other, firmly in their hands to achieve the revitalization of the development of their respective countries.
