As the Russia-Ukraine war continues, China has said that India should help each other accomplish goals, instead of “draining each other’s energies,”.
Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi made this statement on Monday (March 7) as the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) continues to build its presence in East Ladakh.
Yi who was holding an annual press briefing in Beijing said, “ties with India had met with some setbacks in recent years and some forces have tried to create conflict and division between China and India,”.
Ties between the world’s most populous country took turn for worse when Chinese soldiers attacked the Indian Army in Galwan in June 2020, which led to the death of 20 Indian soldiers and an unknown number of PLA soldiers who lost their lives.
According to China, only four of its soldiers had died in this clash but it is estimated over sixty soldiers of the PLA were killed by the Indian Army.
