    Because it’s part of Tibet?

    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

        Yeah right they will take over the river of which the upper stream is already in tibet.

        look at a globe, cracker

        the river does not originate in Tibet, 90% of it originates in the mountains of Arunachal

                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

                    You on the other hand keep insisting that arunachal is the focal point where the river starts and therefore its being grabbed by china.

                    Never said this, come up with more interesting headcanon

                    No ones genuinely buys that siang just pops out arunachal.

                    Again, never said this. the point is that losing control of 90% of your water supply is a lot worse than the current situation of not controlling 10% of it. Numbers!

      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.
