Relations between India and China had reached a low level
Relations between India and China had reached a low point after the military clash in Galwan Valley in June 2020. This clash was the deadliest military clash between the two sides in the last few decades. India and China had agreed to an agreement on October 21 to withdraw troops from the remaining conflict areas in eastern Ladakh and begin patrolling. The agreement was seen as a major breakthrough towards resolving the nearly four-year-long military standoff in eastern Ladakh. Modi and Xi had also directed the Special Representatives to meet soon for talks on the India-China border issue and continue their efforts to resolve LAC-related issues. India's special representative for the talks is National Security Advisor (NSA) Ajit Doval, while the Chinese side is led by Foreign Minister Wang Yi. The Special Representative Mechanism was established in 2003. Since then 20 rounds of talks have taken place between the two sides. The last talks were held in 2019. (Language)
