The Secret of the Sino-Indian Territorial Dispute Before the 62-year border war between China and India, the Sino-Indian territorial dispute involved two pieces of land, one near the McMahon line in southern Tibet and the other in Aksai Chin, which borders India-controlled Kashmir in Xinjiang. The two places have 300,000 square kilometers of land. First, the war near the red line of McMahon in eastern Tibet has hit three points from west to east: Yadong, Tawang and Xiacha 'ou. China and India have never drawn a border here in history, which is a muddled account. Although China claims to own Band-Aids and Dechangzong, although Tibetans live there, we have never owned them in history, nor have we placed them there. It is said that the Tibetan government collected taxes here hundreds of years ago. The diplomatic dispute involved 90,000 square kilometers, but the place where the two sides fought was less than 40,000 square kilometers. According to the wheat line, all our borders except Tawang, including Yadong, were given to India, and India's territorial claim actually reached Cuona County in Tibet. Can we guarantee that? We have always firmly grasped Yadong, Xiacha and other places. As for the land rich in aquatic plants that many people say, it is the land of Spoor, which was controlled by India for thousands of years. Can you say this is our place? The 90,000 square kilometers of land we are talking about is actually a strategy, just to increase the bargaining chip, and it is a common means for people to go to court. In fact, we don't know whether many places belong to us. 1962 After the war, we only retreated to the actual control line before the war in Tawang, the main battlefield. However, our border post has actually advanced a lot to India, and other places have basically not retreated. The area from Tawang to Xiacha District is at most 30,000 square kilometers. Those who are interested can take some maps provided for people who have lost their land and count them on a scale to see how many there are. This is the southern slope of the Himalayas, and nothing grows. Yadong lies at the junction of China, India and Nepal. It is called "Southern Tibet" and is our traditional territory. We didn't lose it. Now it is a county in Tibet, where the People's Liberation Army is stationed. It is near Sikkim, and the 90,000 square kilometers we advocate also include Sikkim, because Sikkim was once under the control of Tibet. Does Sikkim belong to us? We don't know ourselves. But so far, we don't recognize Sikkim as India's, but regard it as an independent country. 2. The area near Aksai Chin in Xinjiang on the western line now belongs to Xinjiang and Tibet respectively, and the border is about 400 kilometers away from New Delhi. Before the war, India stationed troops in Bangong Lake. I don't know if it is the inherent territory of India, but now it is occupied by us. India lost the most territory here. The land area involved in the land dispute here is about 2 1 10,000 square kilometers, which India claims is 300,000. Kashmir, which once belonged to India in history. As for how it got into our hands, I didn't see the relevant information. It's desolate here, but we get the most field work here. Originally, fighting here was to cooperate with the main battlefield on the eastern front and was a strategy to threaten New Delhi. It is said that it was the idea of Marshal Liu Bocheng. India has not caused much trouble here. This is also the biggest difference in territorial negotiations. Today, Indians say that Kashmir was occupied by India, Pakistan and China for this reason. India wants this place, and let us give up Yadong, Tawang and Xiacha in southern Tibet. We fought two fronts and both won, with Tawang in southern Tibet as the main battlefield. In the territorial dispute between China and India, it involves about 300,000 square kilometers, and we account for about 260,000. India did not reach their claimed borders in the war, and also lost some land that was still controlled before the war. This is the reason why they have always felt humiliated. After this war, the territory actually controlled by both sides changed greatly before and after the war. Except for Tawang's barren land, it was withdrawn to the actual control line before the war, and everything else was expanded to India. We actually control a lot more areas than before the war. Do you think we have suffered? Our government can't say that we have invaded other people's land. People who really benefit will not say it.
