Washington sources stated that US President donald trump said on wednesday that he is "ready, willing and able" to "mediate or arbitrate" the raging border dispute between india and china, amid the continuing standoff between the militaries of the two neighbours at the Line of Actual Control (LAC)."We have informed both india and china that the united states is ready, willing and able to mediate or arbitrate their now raging border dispute. Thank you!" trump said

 

Meanwhile several areas along the LAC in Ladakh and North sikkim have witnessed major military build-up by both the indian and Chinese armies recently, in a clear signal of escalating tension and hardening of respective positions by the two sides even two weeks after they were engaged in two separate face-offs.

 

india has said the Chinese military was hindering normal patrolling by its troops along the LAC in Ladakh and sikkim and strongly refuted Beijing's contention that the escalating tension between the two armies was triggered by trespassing of indian forces across the Chinese side. The Ministry of External Affairs said all indian activities were carried out on its side of the border, asserting that india has always taken a very responsible approach towards border management. At the same time, it said, india was deeply committed to protect its sovereignty and security.
