Shots Fired On India-China Flashpoint Border As Deescalation Talks Crumble
"We must warn India seriously: You have crossed the line! Your frontline troops have crossed the line!" -China's Global Times wrote.
Beijing charged India with a "severe military provocation" after it claimed Indian troops breached the LAC and entered the Chinese to side. They then "opened fire to threaten the Chinese border defense patrol officers," according to the PLA charge.
An Al Jazeera correspondent in Beijing reports that "According to the Chinese side, Chinese troops approached the India side for negotiations, and then they say some Indian troops fired at the Chinese side."
But these talks appear to be unraveling, also as China's state-run English newspaper, Global Times, issues its account of what happened on Monday:
Indian troops again illegally crossed the Line of Actual Control (LAC) into the Shenpao mountain region near the south bank of Pangong Tso Lake on Monday. They then outrageously fired warning shots at Chinese border patrol troops who came to negotiate, and Chinese border patrol troops were forced to take measures to stabilize the area, a spokesperson of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Western Theater Command said early Tuesday.
And this was followed with a stern warning, saying, "We must warn India seriously: You have crossed the line! Your frontline troops have crossed the line! Your nationalist public opinion has crossed the line! Your policy toward China has crossed the line! You are over-confidently provoking the PLA and Chinese people - this is like doing a handstand on the edge of a cliff!"
New Delhi immediately threw the accusation back, denying that its own troops carried out the aggression, instead blaming China.
"It is the PLA that has been blatantly violating agreements and carrying out aggressive maneuvers," the Indian army said Tuesday in an official statement.
"Despite the grave provocation, (our) own troops exercised great restraint and behaved in a mature and responsible manner," the army added.
