The Indian side's move has seriously violated China's territorial sovereignty, severely undermined the peace and stability of the Sino-Indian border area, and rebelled against it. China strongly opposes this.

We solemnly request the Indian side to immediately withdraw its illegally crossing troops, strictly control and restrain the front-line troops, earnestly abide by its commitments, and avoid further escalation of the situation.

The Chinese military is taking necessary countermeasures and will pay close attention to developments and resolutely safeguard China's territorial sovereignty and peace and stability in border areas.

The cooperation between China and India in pragmatic areas is mutually beneficial and win-win. This kind of cooperation pattern has been artificially damaged, and it does not actually conform to India’s own interests.
