India-China Breakthrough: China Ready For Border Talks As India Pushes For Border Demarcation [Video]

India-China Breakthrough: China Ready For Border Talks As India Pushes For Border Demarcation

China has said it is ready for talks with India to negotiate and manage the long-disputed border following a direct push by Indian defence minister Rajnath Singh. The statement comes days after Singh met his Chinese counterpart Admiral Dong Jun at the SCO meet in Qingdao. Singh had urged for a permanent solution to the LAC demarcation and troop de-escalation, referring to a “structured roadmap” for resolving tensions. Beijing responded that while the border issue is complicated, established diplomatic and military mechanisms are in place, and both sides must work to keep peace and stability. The 2020 Galwan Valley clash — which claimed 20 Indian and at least 4 Chinese soldiers — had tanked bilateral relations, but recent developments such as talks resuming and Kailash Mansarovar Yatra reopening signal cautious optimism. Both sides have agreed to continue dialogue through Special Representative mechanisms and cross-border initiatives. #IndiaChina #BorderTalks #GalwanClash #LACStandoff #IndiaChinaTensions #RajnathSingh #DongJun #ChinaIndiaRelations #DefenceDiplomacy #SCO2025 #BorderDispute #Delimitation #TroopDisengagement #Deescalation #ChinaIndiaNews #AsiaStability #Geopolitics #PeaceNegotiations #KailashYatra #LACUpdate ~HT.318~ED.103~GR.122~

Trump takes a DIG at ‘Lowlife’ John Bolton | Refutes to answer about FBI raids at Ex-NSA’s House

Donald Trump took a dig at his former National Security Advisor John Bolton calling him a 'lowlife'. When asked about the FBI raids at Bolton's house Trump deflected the question saying he didn't know much about it. The FBI raided Bolton's house as part of a classified documents investigation. Ordered by FBI Director Kash Patel, the raid comes days after Bolton publicly criticized Trump’s foreign policy, fueling speculation of political payback. Bolton slammed Trump’s India policy, calling tariffs against New Delhi a damaging mistake. Bolton has also criticised Trump’s conduct during his meeting with President Putin in Alaska, opining that Putin clearly won the Alaska summit while Trump left without a peace deal or ceasefire. #FBI #JohnBolton #Trump #ClassifiedDocs #FBIInvestigation #BoltonRaid #BreakingNews #TrumpVsBolton #PoliticalDrama #KashPatel #BoltonBook #RoomWhereItHappened #ForeignPolicy #NationalSecurity #TrumpRevenge #USPolitics #BoltonCriticism #Putin #UkraineWar #IndiaPolicy ~HT.410~ED.194~
