Washington [US], January 27 (ANI): The US has said it is closely monitoring the situation regarding the border clashes between India and China and it is glad that at least in December both India and China appeared to have disengaged.
“We are closely monitoring the situation broadly regarding border clashes but we are glad to hear that at least in December both sides (India and China) appeared to have disengaged,” US State Department Principal Deputy spokesperson Vedant Patel said on Thursday.
Notably, the Ladakh border clash in 2020 has remained the dominant issue between the two sides. Since April 2020, India and China have also had several rounds of diplomatic and military level meetings on the situation along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in the India-China border areas.
Sun said that as the situation at the border is currently stable, both India and China should implement the important consensus between the leaders of the two nations, and also strengthen communication, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China said in an official statement.
Speaking further, the US Principal Deputy spokesperson also called India an important ally of the United States in a number of spaces.
The US State Department also condemned the Russian attack on Ukraine and extended sympathies to all those who were hurt.
