India says it has agreed with China to work urgently to achieve the withdrawal of tens of thousands of troops stationed along their disputed border in a long-running standoff.
Because it’s part of Tibet? Idk, why does India need to claim it? Why does India need to own Assam for that matter? Why can’t Bangladesh have it? Or be its own state like Nepal or Bhutan? Historical claims are just like that, they’re not objective and they often overlap. Who’s to say who’s right and who’s wrong?
you literally can’t keep track of the argument lmao. done
the original argument was “losing arunachal = water insecurity”
you countered with “uhhh the tsangpo is acktshyually in Tibet” and ignored the massive amounts of water (snow) from Arunachal itself
somehow you can’t admit that you’re wrong, or you can’t keep track of what was said 4 comments ago
Hint: wanna actually disprove what I said? look at the volume flow rates for all those rivers on your map, and show me that a large amount of it originates from before it hits Arunachal
Well it depends whose globe i look at doesn’t it? One side says one thing the other says another.
The point i was making is that most of the lines on the map that we call borders are really arbitrary and the arguments why they should be one way and not the other depend on your point of view. And the border between India and China is especially dubious in legitimacy because it was drawn by the British, and at a time when one of these two countries didn’t even exist/was a colony and the other was too weak to defend its sovereign interests and territory.
And i don’t understand the point you’re making about rivers.
Yes. Look at a globe and then touch the relief textures. Arunachal is part of the Indian continental landmass, which is very very clearly defined by the Himalayas, Hindu Kush, and Arakan mountains
Love China but have never seen a remotely convincing argument for why they need to claim Arunachal
edit: this continues to be true

Nope, it’s part of India. Look at a globe.
and yea, anyone can claim anything. But if you continue to claim the river that feeds 600 million people, expect not to be cooperated with

look at a globe, cracker
the river does not originate in Tibet, 90% of it originates in the mountains of Arunachal
