China warned on Thursday that a “forced decoupling” of its economy with India, following a Himalayan border clash last month that killed 20 Indian soldiers, would hurt both countries.

The statement came after New Delhi’s recent moves to ban or sideline Chinese business interests in one of the world’s biggest markets, even as the border remains tense with many more troops on the ground than usual.

“China advocates win-win cooperation and opposes a zero-sum game,” Ambassador Sun Weidong wrote on Twitter. “Our economies are highly complementary, interwoven and interdependent. Forced decoupling is against the trend and will only lead to a ‘lose-lose’ outcome.”

Officials of the nuclear-armed neighbours have been talking regularly to de-escalate the border standoff after the June 15 clash in the Galwan Valley of India’s Ladakh region when the Indian officials said soldiers were beaten to death with rocks and clubs.

Perhaps China should be directing this “warning” at itself.
It wasn’t India that moved troops up to challenge India’s border in the high altitude back of beyond. It would be a win-win situation for China to withdraw several hundred miles and apologize for its aggression.

it’s not even about being humble, but respecting the other as an equal country. The USA does this, whether to humble Andorra or to Russia. China under Xi Jinping has become arrogant.

So is a Chinese imperialist colonialist attack on Indian territory.

China has seriously pissed off just about everyone in the region. Russia may be the only ones not so.
