US Stance On India-China Border Clash In Arunachal Pradesh

US Stance On India-China Border Clash In Arunachal Pradesh

 The United States (US) has urged India and the People’s Republic of China to utilize existing bilateral channels to discuss disputed boundaries in Arunachal Pradesh's Tawang district. 

On Tuesday, the White House said that the Joe Biden administration was happy that the two countries disengaged after clashing in Arunachal Pradesh's Tawang sector. During a press briefing, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said that the US was monitoring the situation after the border clash between the two countries.

The border clash between Indian and Chinese troops in the Tawang sector on Friday led to minor injuries to military personnel on both sides. Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said the situation was stable after the border clash. 

Reportedly, over 200 Chinese soldiers clashed with Indian troops in the Yangtse area of the Tawang sector. Around 80 Indian soldiers were on duty on December 9. Reportedly, the Chinese Army clashed with three units of the Indian Army. Jammu and Kashmir Rifles, Jat regiment, and Sikh Light Infantry were present on December 9. 

Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said Indian troops stopped the Chinese Army from transgressing the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in Arunachal Pradesh. He reportedly said in the Parliament on Tuesday, "I want to assure the House that no Indian soldier was killed or severely injured.”

A major clash between Indian and Chinese troops in 2020 led to casualties on both sides. Another face-off took place at Naku La in Sikkim in 2021. However, no casualties were reported at that time. 

Earlier, China claimed Arunachal Pradesh as its territory, calling it “South Tibet.” However, India rejected these claims. 

During the 1962 Sino-Indian War, the Bum La Pass situated north of Tawang was used by the Chinese Army for invasion. The area is considered important because it is situated close to one of the Bhutan-India-China trijunctions.
