    No room for negotiations, India must withdraw: Chinese media
  • On July 16, continuing its tirade against India amid the ongoing Sikkim standoff, state-owned Xinhua news agency asserted that there was no room for negotiations with India and that the only solution was for Indian troops to withdraw from Doklam.

    The commentary further warned against worsening of the situation and the possibility of India suffering embarrassment if it refuses to do so.

    What context is this happening in?
  • Indian and Chinese troops have been engaged in month-long tense stand-off in the Doklam region located in the Sikkim-Bhutan-Tibet tri-junction, with both sides accusing each other of transgressing into each others' territory.

    China has been insisting that withdrawal of Indian troops is a pre-condition for negotiations.

    Chinese media has also taken a sharp tone with India, asking India to remember 1962 among other things.

  • Jaishankar's statement comes even as the state-run Chinese daily Global Times stated that China must prepare for the possibility that the Sikkim standoff could become a long-term situation.

    This could trigger "an all-out confrontation" between both sides along the border.

    The article said India's actions are a "blatant infringement on China's sovereignty."

    Chinese forces reportedly conducted live firing drills recently in the disputed region.
