India and China on August 14 held the 19th round of Corps Commander-level talks at Chushul as part of the ongoing efforts for overall disengagement and de-escalation to resolve the stand-off in eastern Ladakh.
Incidentally, the talks come a day before Independence Day and less than a month before the G-20 Leaders’ Summit in New Delhi.
The talks began at 9.30 a.m. on Monday at the Chushul border meeting point on the Indian side and ended at 5.30 p.m., a defence official said. As has been the case in the past, a statement on the outcome of the talks is expected in a day or two.
