Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent interview suddenly made a rare talk about peace between China and India, trying to ease Sino-Indian relations, which was suspected of being a cover-up for other goals.
The Indian army has just held a large-scale exercise of more than 1,200 fighters against China, and the fighter planes have just withdrawn after the exercise, and the Indian army has continuously increased the deployment of troops and weapons and equipment in the border areas, with more than 200,000 troops deployed on the border, and the hostility towards China is very obvious, which is obviously inconsistent with Modi's statement.
Modi pushes for easing Sino-Indian relations?
According to a report by Newsweek, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said in an interview about China-India relations that the relationship with China is important and meaningful to India, but there is an urgent need to resolve the protracted tensions on the border between the two countries.
The Modi government's China policy is uncertain
The development of peaceful and stable relations between China and India is important for the whole world, and on the border issue, Modi hopes to restore and maintain peace and tranquility on the border between the two countries through positive and constructive bilateral interaction at the diplomatic and military levels.
Judging from Modi's series of remarks, the attitude on the China issue has softened, but some analysts have pointed out that this is actually to cover up the purpose of India's intensified invasion of China's territory, saying that it is to have a dialogue with China, which is just an expedient measure.
A few days ago, the Indian foreign minister made a statement openly challenging China's sovereignty
Because not so long ago, India used both diplomatic and military means against China. In response to the 30 place names in southern Tibet announced by China's Ministry of Civil Affairs, Indian Foreign Minister S Jaishankar first came out and said that southern Tibet is India's "territory". Then Indian Defense Minister Manmohan Singh also said that China's move was "undermining" Sino-Indian relations, and India was on guard.
In terms of military maneuvers, the Indian Air Force has held the largest air combat exercise in recent years, with China and Pakistan as imaginary enemies, with more than 1,200 military aircraft of various types participating.
The Indian army's large-scale military exercise, with China and Pakistan as imaginary enemies, has just ended
The Indian media also made it clear that India believes that once it is in a state of war, it will be able to face threats from both China and Pakistan at the same time. The Indian Air Force will train how to fight the Chinese Air Force to ensure that the Indian army can seize air supremacy in the Sino-Indian border area "in wartime".
The Indian army has deployed formed armored units in the eastern section of the Sino-Indian border
The Indian army is still aggressively increasing its presence on the Sino-Indian border
From 2017 to the present, India has successively increased its troops on a large scale in the Sino-Indian border area and nearby areas, and at the same time formed a new military-level combat force. Up to now, the Indian army has deployed nearly 20 combat divisions on the Sino-Indian border, and the number of troops has already exceeded 200,000.
Moreover, it is worth noting that the main forces of the Indian army on the Sino-Indian border are basically deployed in the southern region of China, India and Tibet, especially in the territory and surrounding areas of China that it has occupied, and the Indian army has hoarded 12 mountain divisions.
In recent years, the Modi government has illegally increased its troops in southern Tibet, and in order to improve the logistical supply pressure in southern Tibet, it has built a so-called Sera tunnel, and India will have the all-weather logistics and material transportation capacity in the Tawang region of southern Tibet, although the volume is still insufficient. The Modi government has made its illegal occupation of southern Tibet and infrastructure projects its own.
With regard to the Indian leadership, it is necessary not only to "observe its words" but also to "observe its deeds"
Therefore, regardless of what Modi says, the measures taken by the entire Indian government are now to consolidate the illegal occupation of Chinese territory, and Modi's statement that he "hopes to restore and maintain peace and tranquility on the border between the two countries through diplomatic and military interaction" is still a pretentious gesture, which is India's consistent trick.
First of all, when facing the West, it always stands on the moral high ground in order to win the support of the West.
Modi will contest a new round of general elections
Second, in the face of the domestic public, it presents its so-called "rational and pragmatic" side, which is to win votes and support. Because India is about to hold a general election, Modi wants to be re-elected as India's prime minister, and foreign policy is an important issue in the Modi government's election campaign.
Finally, in the face of China, India has now adopted a tactic of "slicing sausages", taking advantage of China's main focus on dealing with the West, and from time to time making small moves in the border areas to disgust people and insert needles.
However, India does not dare to kick its nose in the face, and after the provocative move, the Indian leadership will make another statement to ease Sino-Indian relations, which is fickle and can be said to be extremely rogue in its true nature.
However, this time, Modi has put on a high-profile posture of seeking peace, but he has not mentioned his own concessions, and has instead stepped up the infrastructure and military deployment in southern Tibet.
In previous negotiations, the Indian side has always put forward unreasonable demands, including demands that China withdraw its troops, which are simply impossible to meet, and if China cannot meet India's demands, it will be "undermining peace".
Of course, some netizens may wonder why China is so "conniving" at India, instead of adopting tough military means to completely defeat the Indian army and recover the territory of southern Tibet?
The United States has been trying to win over India as a new member of the "anti-China bloc."
China's current response to a collective repression by the Western bloc is a minor contradiction at best, and China has never treated India as a strategic rival.
Moreover, the West is eager for a direct fight between China and India, and the United States originally wanted to actively draw India into the "anti-China" circle and jointly encircle, suppress and suppress China.
In essence, China and India still have common interests, and the mainland's official statement to India is that it hopes that India and China will work in the same direction, grasp bilateral relations from a strategic and long-term perspective, persist in enhancing mutual trust, persist in dialogue and cooperation, and persist in properly handling differences, so as to promote the development of bilateral relations along a healthy and stable track.
Of course, this does not mean that the mainland is helpless against India's invasion of China's territory, and it will take several years to build a short-distance Sera tunnel at the level of India's infrastructure construction, and the Indian army deployed in southern Tibet still lacks all-weather and sufficient logistical support capabilities, especially in bad weather conditions.
Therefore, if diplomacy and other means do not work, military means are the last option, and the PLA is capable enough to block the logistics supply of the Indian army and expel all the Indian troops occupying Chinese territory.
