The two sides are trading blame for the failed negotiations
Talks between India and China over the disputed border region in the Himalayas have broken down, with each side blaming the other for the failed negotiations.
Tensions have been high between the two powers along the Line of Actual Control (LAC), which separates Indian-controlled territory from Chinese-controlled territory. In 2020, Chinese and Indian troops fought several skirmishes along the LAC, including one in June 2020 that turned deadly.
The failed talks mean that India and China will continue to have troops forwardly deployed in Ladakh, where the skirmishes took place. China has blamed the failure on what it called âunreasonable demandsâ from India.
