New Delhi – China had claimed that it has the sovereign right to announce the new names of 11 places in Arunachal Pradesh. Through this, China had planned to bring the Arunachal Pradesh issue to the fore. However, India has ensured that the international media’s attention will not be drawn to it by reacting strongly. At the same time, the US, which is trying to jump into this dispute by saying that Arunachal Pradesh is the territory of India, will not get an opportunity to interfere in this. The Ministry of External Affairs of India has taken this precaution.
The US White House had criticized China for claiming Arunachal Pradesh. The spokesperson of the White House had said that Arunachal Pradesh is a territory of India and the United States will fully support India in this matter. External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Arindam Bagchi reacted to it. Support from anyone is a great thing. But the issue of India’s sovereign right over Arunachal Pradesh does not depend on anyone’s approval or opposition, Bagchi warned. Through this, it seems that the Ministry of External Affairs has given a clear message that India is not dependent on the support of the United States.
For the past few weeks, US diplomats, analysts and think tanks have been consistently raising the issue of the India-China border dispute. All of them are constantly saying that the United States will be on India’s side in this dispute. This matter was also mentioned in the report published by the Center for New American Security-CNAS on Thursday. In a report published by CNAS titled ‘India-China Border Relations and US Strategy in the Indo-Pacific’, it has been claimed that China is becoming increasingly aggressive on India’s border.
In such a situation, the US must help India. It has been warned in this report. This once again exposed the fact that the US is trying to interfere in the border disputes between India and China in different ways. The US Biden administration is being accused of secretly colluding with China. In such a situation, India seems to be looking more cautiously at the statements made by the US regarding the India-China border dispute. At the same time, India is making the US and China aware that India is independent of anyone else to solve the border dispute with China. This is evident from the reaction given by the Ministry of External Affairs.
