China-India border dispute explained

In June 2020, the most serious confrontation between Chinese and Indian military forces since almost 60 years occurred at the Galwan River valley, right at the disputed border region, leaving several soldiers dead on both sides. This was a striking reminder that one of of the oldest ongoing territorial disputes is far from being solved, and since then concerns about a potential escalation of the issue have increased significantly.
While this Himalayan conflict between China and India can be observed regularly in the news, it is rare to be provided an actual explanation of what the whole issue is really about. In this video, we are taking a look at all the disputed territories, from Aksai Chin, over to Sikkim and finally to Arunachal Pradesh, or how China calls it, South Tibet. We explore the historic background of the conflict, its development in the 20th and 21st century and also look at some of the reasons why these territories matter so much to the two states.

One interesting fact that I learned while studying about India's dispute with China, is that the McMohan line was drawn by Henry McMohan while mapping out the border, was drawn by a rather thick red pen, which led to confusion about what the actual demarcation line was, resulting in China being able to assert it's claim over Arunachal Pradesh over the ambiguity over the demarcation amongst other reasons. A literal thick red pen used by a Britisher has led to billions of dollars of military expenditure by both the sides.

Britain took advantage of China's civil war to help draw the line between China and India, but China has never acknowledged it. After India's independence, it believed that it inherited the heritage of the British colonists, but China still did not recognize the boundary line. In 1962, with the support of the United States and the Soviet Union, the Indian army marched deep into Tibet, which was Nehru's forward policy. As a result, a war broke out between China and India in the border areas. After China defeated India, it took the initiative to declare a cease-fire and withdraw its troops to 20 kilometers north of the actual line of control, thus separating the two sides from contact. After that, China returned more than 4000 Indian prisoners of war and weapons seized from the Indian army. The reason why China won in the war but did not occupy the disputed areas is not because of the pressure from the United States. We all know that China had dealt with 16 countries headed by the United States as early as in the Korean War, and also with the United States in the Vietnam War. Then, why did China choose to withdraw its troops northward instead of occupying the disputed areas? The real reason is that the Chinese leaders at that time still wanted to solve the problem through peaceful negotiations. Only in this way can disputes be resolved permanently. If land is obtained through war, the two countries will never be able to resolve their hatred. Another reason is that both China and India suffered from aggression and colonization before independence. China hopes to maintain friendship with the third world countries and jointly confront the two superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union.

In history British invaded China several times, they forced China signed contract to give up the ownership of land to the India colony, As long as China signed the contract China accept it(in 19 century China twice gave up land,s to India colony). But in 20th century British just military occupied some new land which China never sign contract to give them up, India should not regard them as a part of India.

You did not mention the so-called Treaty of Sugauli of 1816 with the British Empire and Nepal after the Anglo-Nepal War which will change the geography map of India & Nepal where the Greater Nepal border extends from the Testa River in the East to the Sutlej River in the West and Ganga river to the South.

[@STUDIOUSBUDDIES]

Thanks for this useful video , iam a student myself and basically an indian and i have realized after going through the information provided by the books ,that the britishers in the past did this all on purpose , india was under the rule of britishers and they gave the job of construction of the maps and borders to a british person who barely knew anything about the geography of india . This lead to the chaos and inhumane incidents caused by the brutal partition as well as now this problem of china and india border is coming to an occurence . I don't know why the government officials of india let britishers do it ,i mean it caused a lot of trouble for us due to their bad intentions .well britishers had really some clever plans and they never cared for the country they controlled . Iam not giving hate to any nationality here , sorry if i came accross as rude .

India border dispute was a timed landmine left by the British. Similarly, the Diaoyu island, was a strategic timed landmine left by the American. Very smart moves.

[@xwqi]

The same controversial issue can also explain the territorial issues between China and Japan, Vietnam, the Philippines, etc. the dispute between China and Japan over Diaoyu Islands, originally an island under the jurisdiction of China (Taiwan), was used by the United States as a target for shooting training during World War II. Taiwan was governed by the Republic of China at that time. They and the United States were allies and acquiesced to the jurisdiction of the United States. When Japan surrendered, the U.S. troops withdrew from the area and handed over the Diaoyu Islands to Japan. This also caused tension between China and Japan because of the Diaoyu Islands. In addition, Japan's nearest area to China (Diaoyu Islands) was originally an independent kingdom (Ryukyu Kingdom). Ryukyu was originally a subsidiary of China. When Japan colonized Ryukyu, Ryukyu also had a history Ask the Qing government to send troops to support. At that time, the Qing government itself was at the end of the Qing Dynasty. Ryukyu did not belong to China, so the Chinese never mentioned taking back Ryukyu, because it was not Chinese at all. However, the Diaoyu Islands were different. It was Chinese territory at first. Even if there was a war, China would not give up

钓鱼岛在主权上是中国的，这是历史跟法理上有依据的。日本高层心知肚明。至于说到琉球群岛，日本没有主权，这是波茨坦公告等日本二战投降后承认的。现在日本人在管辖琉球，是因为1951年美国跟日本签订的《旧金山和约》，这个是日美单方面签订的，没有获得当事国苏联跟中国同意，所以管辖权也是有瑕疵的。日本人也很清楚这一点。就是做贼心虚。

Additional notes: 1.Now the Xinjiang-Tibet Highway go through Aksai Chin, and this highway is very hard to build (few armies go through this route historically and building this road costs 4 digits of PLA soliders) and plays as the major connection between the two Western provinces 2.Like a lot of other countries with territory conflicts, showing maps including border differing from the official one like LAC is illegal in the both countries, which brings a lot of trouble to Western multi-national companies 3.The 1962 war shocks IN people so deeply that they believe that PLA is marching to New Delhi 4. Existence of more threating opponents and common standing on a lot of international issues like relation to RU(including attribute to UA war) or supporting other developing countries leading the both countries to controll the conflict at a low level

First India never had a border with China it only shared border with Tibet which was illegally occupied by the then Newly created communist Chinese party , Tibet has religious connections and commonalities with India so the 2 regions were free of conflicts and China destroyed the peace of the region they persecuted the Tibetans that's why the leader of Tibetans along with many escaped and seeked asylum in India , India accepted them with open arms , now the Tibetan government in exile works from Dharamshala , India .

This is the best border dispute explanation video i think i've seen... And honestly, i think i'll stop watching border dispute videos, because they're all the same. Two or more countries tug some irrelevant piece of territory back and forth with obscure legal arguments, there's an at best mildly interesting history of conflict, and somehow it always goes back to the British Empire. The only thing that i think is interesting about border disputes is the reasons behind it (what benefits does the region provide that makes both countries want it) and speculation as to how it's likely to evolve in the future.
