The Australian: Don’t push it, China warns India amid Himalayas stand-off
China’s Defence Ministry has warned India not to “push your luck” amid a tense confrontation over a strip of land high in the Himalayas.
Colonel Wu Qian yesterday told a press conference about next Tuesday’s 90th anniversary of the People’s Liberation Army: “China’s resolve to safeguard its sovereignty and security interests is unshakeable”, adding it would do so “at whatever cost”.
The PLS spokesman said he wanted to “remind India: do not push your luck and cling to any fantasies”.
The “reminder” was an implied reference to the last major border confrontation between the two great Asian powers, in 1962, also in the Himalayan region, which China effectively won, after the deaths of 1383 Indian troops and 722 Chinese.
“Shaking a mountain is easy, but shaking the PLA is hard,” Colonel Wu said.
