Washington: US President Donald Trump said on Thursday that he hoped India and China would resolve the current border dispute. Also, he once again offered to help both Asian countries. Trump told reporters at the White House, “I know China and India are facing difficulties.” I hope they deal with it. “
He said, “If we can help, we would definitely like to help.” The President’s statement comes at a time when senior military commanders of India and China had held talks for several months to resolve the deadlock on the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in Ladakh for several months. Meanwhile, the newspaper ‘Wall Street Journal’ said in its news that the border conflict is provoking India to an unsystematic response.
The newspaper said, “India is building joint naval maneuvers with the US and its allies by building new ships and creating a network of coastal surveillance posts that will help New Delhi monitor the Indian Ocean’s maritime traffic.” American expert on India and South Asia affairs Ashley Tellis said that the Trump administration has taken a very transparent stand in supporting India in this crisis.
