China has a large number of regional disputes with its neighbors and often tries to submit them, a tactic that has prompted US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo to stay away from Beijing for his "rogue" attitude.
Military commanders of the Indian and Chinese armies held several rounds of talks to resolve the deadlock at the four standoff points as soldiers in eastern Ladakh. Meetings at Patrolling Point 14 in the Galvan area - the site of a bloody clash on Monday evening, which killed 20 Indian soldiers and an unspecified number from the Chinese side - helped to ease tensions at the border, but from all available indicators, the two favors were far from conclusive. Patrolling Point 14 is under the control of the Indian Army, but soldiers from the China People's Liberation Army - now designated the Galvan Valley as Chinese territory - stand nearby to continue face-to-face.
The Indian border dispute with China this week has shed light on a number of agreements between the two sides, and the differences have not turned into controversies. In Galvan, President Xi Jinping's PLA is trying to create something new.
And not just on the border of India, President Xi's China has created a problem. Speaking at an online conference on democracy, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo attacked China's "rogue" attitude throughout its neighborhood. The US Navy deployed its 300,000 tonne aircraft carrier in the Pacific Ocean on June 15. This is the first deployment of American supercars from USS Ronald Reagan, USS Theodore Roosevelt and USS Nimitz 2017. The US has no security obligation. The purpose of the deployment is to counter China's aggressive posture towards Taiwan.
Bhutan
The final stand-up between India and China on Beijing's occupation and construction operations in Doklam was at the Indo-Bhutan-Tibet Tri-junction, which lasted 73 days. China backed down as part of a peace deal between India and China, but according to several reports, was back in its game. Such encroachments, construction activities, and cases are where China's patrolling Bhutan pastures threaten to prevent them from reaching the lawns of Bhutan territory elsewhere along the Bhutan-China border.
South China Sea
China is flexing its muscles for complete control over the resources-rich South China Sea. China's claim on "historical rights" was overturned by the 2016 arbitration ruling, but it halted efforts by China to militarize the region.
The South China Sea is one of the busiest maritime trade routes in the world, serving up to $ 3.5 trillion in annual trade, indicating that this territorial claim affects not only its smaller neighbors but also the larger ones.
China has an island and maritime disputes with Taiwan, Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Vietnam in the South China Sea. The disputes include the Spratly Islands (Vietnam, Philippines, Malaysia, Brunei, Taiwan), Paracel Islands (Vietnam), Scarborough Shoal (Philippines), and Tonkin (Vietnam) in the South China Sea. Included. ).
Further, China claims the whole of Taiwan and its controlled islands.
East China Sea
China has separate economic zone conflicts with North Korea, South Korea and Japan in the Yellow Sea (North Korea / South Korea) and the East China Sea (South Korea / Japan). In addition, China claims the Senkaku / Dioyu Islands of Japan. The region again sees a huge intra-region, and global trade and Chinese claims spread across the region, affecting many countries beyond the immediate region.
Nepal
The Nepal Survey Department has accused China of encroaching on Nepal's lands in the northern districts of Hamla, Rasua, Sindhupalchowk and Shanghai, while Kathmandu objected to a new map released by India last year. After the survey was released, there were protests against China, but the Communist Party of Nepal did not intensify the border dispute with China, which was investing billions of rupees in the country and instead held tight to India's map. China embarked on an exercise to measure the height of Mount Everest and set up telecommunication equipment to serve 5G on it. In May, the state-owned China Television Network tweeted that Everest was part of China, but resigned following the outrage.
