China and India’s conflict over the border they share at the Himalayas has gotten tense over time, with fears of possibly igniting another world war. As China looks to have an edge over India’s military in the disputed region, they may see their supposed edge falter, especially in the coming months.
Concerns of a military conflict between China and India over the border the two countries share have been raised. This comes as the People’s Liberation Army has deployed 100 advanced and long-range rocket launchers at the Line of Actual Control. However, according to WION host Paiki Sharma, the edge that the PLA is trying to gain in the coming months may falter due to the season itself.
“Can anyone slow down the Chinese? Well the world’s best bet could be the weather,” said Sharma. “As they say winter is coming and the Chinese army loses its edge in the snow. This is especially true on the LAC. The PLA troops falter in high altitude. They cannot operate their weapons well.”
“China’s solution is to double down and bulk up the LAC with more troops and weaponry,” Sharma added.
India’s foreign ministry raised concerns last week regarding a new law passed in China aiming to strengthen border protection in the midst of a military standoff between China and India at the Himalayan border. Beijing passed a law detailing how it would govern the 22,000-kilometer land border that it shares with India, as well as Russia, and North Korea. Foreign Ministry Spokesman Arindam Bagchi released a statement suggesting that Beijing is trying to unilaterally change border arrangements with its new legislation.
China is also at odds with the island nation of Taiwan as it engages in a pressure campaign to get Taiwan’s democratic government to submit to its sovereignty. Taiwan has since resisted the efforts even as Chinese fighter jets have made repeated incursions over its airspace. Tensions increased again as Beijing has warned that the island nation’s independence has hit a “dead end.”
The ruling Chinese Communist Party also went on to claim that any foreign support for Taiwan is futile.
