Chinese and Indian military commanders have pledged to “maintain the peace and tranquility” along their disputed border, in an apparent effort by the sides to stabilise the situation after a rise in tensions.
The two countries’ defence ministries issued identical statements late on Tuesday, saying the 19th round of commander-level talks held on Sunday and Monday had produced a “positive, constructive and in-depth discussion” centred on resolving issues related to the Line of Actual Control in the border’s western sector.
