Indo-China Clash: China using deliberate policy to create extreme tension,says former Indian Diplomat

Former Indian diplomat TP Sreenivasan on Tuesday said that as a deliberate policy China is trying to flex their muscles on the Indo-China border to create tension at highest level.
Sreenivasan who served as Indian Ambassador in Vienna for Austria and Slovenia, and also worked in UN, said that this time it is a more aggressive posture from China.
He said that even in 1962, China fought war with India when America was busy with the Cuban crisis. Now they are showing aggression knowing that during this COVID -19 crisis there will be no US help .
He said that China is trying to use the opportunity (post COVID-19) to be more aggressive even with Taiwan and Hong Kong.
It is noted that at least 20 Indian Army personnel including a colonel were martyred in a fierce clash with Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley in eastern Ladakh on Monday night.
